At Peace Mountain Ranch the lives of veterans and those in need are cared for through equine connection, counseling, spiritual development, and a working ranch experience. Our desire is for each individual to look beyond where they have been and gain new focus towards a path of transformation hope, purpose, and healing.
Sneakers for Soldiers is a 501c(3) organization that provides special purpose and properly fitted sneakers to deployed men and women serving in Afghanistan. In Afghanistan, extreme temperatures, harsh environments, rugged terrain, and daily exercise wreak havoc on Soldiers' sneakers and frequently create the need for a new pair. Exercising in worn out shoes is just as bad as exercising in the wrong shoe - it increases the stress on joints and can cause injuries. Recognizing this need, we have devised a way for each Soldier to choose a sneaker that best fits their needs and feet...because all feet are different. The US Military is in the very early stages of providing sneakers to new recruits however, deployed Soldiers are currently not beneficiaries of this program.
Their common bond is the battlefield, whether it is service in the Persian Gulf, Korea, Kosovo, WWII, Vietnam, Bosnia or the war on terrorism or peace-keeping expeditionary campaigns. Their courage and sacrifice have made a difference in preserving and defending world peace. As they remember to never again leave even one Veteran behind, They continue to serve their Comrades, wherever they are or have been. They are here to help.
