Our Community Impact
Engaging Events chooses to give back to our community by making a donation for each new booking to a local nonprofit organization. The organization we chose for 2020 is L.E.A.R.N Horse Rescue. We discovered L.E.A.R.N through Cindy’s daughter, who loves everything to do with horses and horseback riding. After visiting the L.E.A.R.N campus, meeting some of the animals, and hearing the organization’s origin story, we knew that we had to support their cause in some way. We are so blessed with what we have, and we want to be able to give back to this amazing organization.
