Support the Ranch to give our children a second chance at childhood
Raising children is expensive, especially when you raise as many as we do at the Arkansas Sheriffs’ Youth Ranches! But you can’t put a price tag on changing a child’s life. The ASYR is 100% privately funded, mostly by individuals, businesses, and foundations across Arkansas.
Please consider investing in Arkansas’s future. Together we can help break the cycle of abuse and neglect devastating so many families. Donate today to give our children a second chance at childhood – one with proper healthcare, educational opportunities, and a safe, loving home environment with people who care – not only for them – but also about them.
Make a one-time gift or become a Hope Builder with a monthly gift
A one-time or monthly gift to the ASYR’s General Fund allows us to immediately use your dollars where they are needed most. As a private nonprofit 501(c)3 organization, all gifts made to the Ranches are tax-deductible within the extent of the law.
Become a Hope Builder for our boys and girls with a monthly contribution or a round-up gift by donating your spare change from everyday purchases by rounding up to the next dollar. Your gift will be processed automatically each month with a credit or debit card and provides constant, much-needed support for our programs. Even small gifts make a BIG difference in children’s lives!
Did you know that just $25 per month provides:
• New shoes for up to six of our boys and girls
• A monthly allowance for one child
• Caps and gowns for all of our graduates
• Birthday gifts for 12 children
• Feed for our farm animals for one month
