The dark of winter can feel endless, taking a toll on mental health and well-being.

Maybe there are other things in your life making this period particularily difficult, as well.

Just remember – seasons of life don't last forever. Things can and will change, you just have to hang in there.

What acts of self-love can you show yourself this winter? Maybe it’s a mindful cup of tea, journaling your thoughts, reaching out to a friend, or simply giving yourself permission to rest.

If you are struggling with thoughts of su***de or self-harm – you are not alone. Call or text 988 for immediate support.

The Buckeye Ranch is racing against time to hit our $100,000 fundraising goal by December 31 to support youth facing mental health crises.

Your gift today can make all the difference for youth, like Martay!✨ We're close, but we need your help to cross the finish line!

Struggling to navigate ADHD and PTSD in the traditional school setting, Martay found the support and guidance he needed to thrive at The Buckeye Ranch's private charter school – The Bonner Academy.

Today, Martay is thriving in his home school district, preparing for graduation, and looking forward to a future helping others.

Whether it’s a young person who has been experiencing suicidal ideation finding hope for tomorrow, a child discovering stability for the first time in a nurturing foster home, or a teen’s journey from expulsion to thriving in a classroom environment – these powerful moments of healing are only possible because of you.

Can we count on you to help us meet our goal to raise $100,000 to meet the urgent needs of youth in our community ... before it's too late?

Hurry! Don't miss your chance to change a life: buckeyeranch.org/TBR-Annual-Appeal-2025
