What a week it has been at New Beginning🎉

In just 3 days (Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday), we were blessed to serve 96 people — and we couldn’t do it without our incredible team of 3 part-time staff, our WKU BSW & MSW interns, and of course our amazing volunteers who give so generously of their time and hearts. 💙🐴

We’re excited to wrap up the week tomorrow with Homecoming & Movie Night — a chance to celebrate together as one big family. 🎬✨

Every rider, family, and visitor we serve is why we do what we do. But to keep these programs running strong, we rely on the kindness and generosity of supporters like you. 💕

👉 If you’d like to help us continue making an impact, please consider making a donation today. Every gift — big or small — goes directly toward changing lives here at the barn.

We are truly blessed and grateful. Thank you for believing in us and in the healing power of horses! 🐎✨

A Special Request for Our Barn Entrance

At New Beginnings, we love to create a welcoming space for our riders, families, and volunteers. As the seasons change, we’d love to brighten up our front entryway with some beautiful mums or another living floral arrangement.

If you, your family, or your business would like to donate a plant to help us keep our barn entrance cheerful and inviting, we would be so grateful. 💐

It’s a simple way to spread joy to everyone who walks through our doors. Thank you for helping us make New Beginnings feel like home. ❤️

Some horses have the funniest little quirks 💕 Cookie is the first to let us know when he’s done eating—he picks up his food bucket, moves it off the fence, and gives it a shake like, “All done here!” 🐴🍽️

Just like people, every horse has their own unique personality, and it’s those little traits that make them so special to us. 💖

If you've ever fed the horses at New Beginnings, you know just how different they all are. Being a feeder is one of the most rewarding opportunities as a volunteer! You get to see & talk to every horse.

If you're interested in volunteering, please reach out.

AND if you've got a funny "Cookie" story we'd love hear it in the comments.

Don’t forget!  It’s today and tomorrow!!

Don’t forget! It’s today and tomorrow!!

It’s easy to get caught up in it all; don’t forget how many ways this sale makes a difference in our community. Every purchase has the power to make a positive impact.

🩷 All Warren County and BGISD Family Resource Coordinators are provided vouchers to stock up school clothing inventories when a need arises or provide to families in need.

🩷 Families identified by Family Resource Coordinators, foster families, and refugee families are able to shop the donation section after the sale. Many consignors generously donate their unsold items to make this happen.

🩷 During the sale, shoppers can choose to give $1, $5, or $10 to Heaven Cent, which goes directly toward one local organization.

🩷 All proceeds from the sale go toward local organizations that support children and families.

✨ None of this would be possible without our amazing consignors who spend so much time and care tagging items, and our wonderful volunteers who help with everything from setup to teardown, local businesses who let us put signs in their yards and donate food to keep us going all week. ✨

🛍️ Shop:
🗓️ September 12, 9 AM - 8 PM
🗓️ September 13, 8 AM - 2 PM (half price day!)

Our Story

Equine Assisted Therapies to individuals (ages 5 and up to adults) with behavioral, emotional, mental, and physical disabilities in Warren and surrounding counties through the power of horses. with behavioral, emotional, mental and physical disabilities.

NBTR is a non-profit 501c3 that relies on donations, grants, and fundraisers to operate on a day to day basis. Our goal is to strengthen the minds, bodies, and souls of individuals by providing a recreational outlet that has therapeutic benefits. The responsibility of riding and caring for a horse encourages self-esteem, confidence and coordination. The aim of our program is to see positive changes in the riders physically, emotionally and spiritually.

NBTR is one of four PATH Intl. (Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship International) Premier Accredited Centers in Kentucky and the only one West of Lexington. This means that NBTR has reached or exceeded the standards to ensure we are providing the best quality and safest atmosphere possible to individuals with disabilities. PATH Intl. has been in existence since 1969 and has studied and researched its standards, precautions, and contraindications to horseback riding and allows accredited centers to use this information to ensure safety and qualified services.

NBTR began in 1997 with three students, three horses, and 20 volunteers and to date have served over 900+ students in Warren and surrounding counties with over 11,000 volunteer hours. We can accommodate more individuals because we can have classes indoors and when the weather is nice we can go outside in a large outdoor horse arena or a tree lined trail that was cleaned up by a local Eagle Scout, which is now our sensory trail.
