Circle Ranch's 2024 Mission: Making a Lasting Impact on Children's Lives

Join Us in 2024 to Make a Lasting Impact on Children's Lives: Circle Ranch's Mission for a Brighter Future

The Circle Ranch Team and I are excited to share our mission for Circle Ranch in 2024. We recognize the immense importance of this mission for our ranch and the impact it will have on our community, particularly the future of children in need. Our goal is not only to provide immediate housing but also to empower these children with the tools they need to break the cycle of abuse, neglect, and abandonment. By doing so, we can help them become productive members of our community.

We have been incredibly blessed in 2023, as our community's support for Circle Ranch has continued to grow. Our property, located at 1690 Old Union Point Road in Greensboro, is now fully prepared and we eagerly await the builder's schedule. Our aim is to be ready to welcome our first children and operate seamlessly by late 2024.

We sincerely urge you to consider supporting this mission and contribute whatever you can to make a significant difference in the lives of these deserving children. Your donation, no matter the size, will have a positive and lasting impact on both the children and our community.

Thank you for your support and belief in the Circle Ranch mission.

Warm regards,

Jody Sandwick

Executive Director

Young Artisan Market

The Young Artisan Market, sponsored by Circle Ranch, took place on April 29, 2023 at Fairview Market in Madison, Georgia. A total of 40 young individuals, aged 6 to 18, from nearby communities showcased and sold their handmade products. They were able to retain all the earnings from their sales.

The event received an astounding response and will be organized again as a Holiday Market, offering young entrepreneurs another chance to showcase and sell their skills. Circle Ranch truly enjoys supporting the talented youth within our communities.

Our Children's Needs Are Serious | Our Mission Is Clear

One of the most fragile things on this earth is the heart of a child. Everyday so many of these hearts are shattered by abuse, neglect and abandonment. Hearts are broken through substance abuse in the home or shattered as a result of domestic violence. Many of these children have suffered trauma that we cannot even imagine.

It is difficult for each of us to fathom who would break the heart of an innocent child although over and oven again it happens right here within our own community.  With each passing day the numbers of abuse and neglect continue to rise.

According to a recent article in the Eatonton Messenger Georgia ranks close to the bottom (42) in the nation for child well-being.  I often hear, “ Isn’t Foster Care being paid for through our taxpayers dollars? Yes, this is true, although the Department of Family and Children’s Services (Foster Care) simply have too many kids and too few homes.

Our Service area has lost almost 50% of foster homes in the last few years. These children entrusted to us as a community need our help to provide a home and bring hope to these fragile hearts so that healing can begin.

You may help by making a donation on our website  or mail to Circle Ranch at 1330 Tal Lewis Road, White Pains, Georgia.  For more information visit us at circleranchinc.org or email us at circleranch@windstream.net. Circle Ranch is a 501c3 and all donations are tax deductible.
