Donation

Help transform
a child's life today

Your generosity will help amazing kids who have lived through severe pain and trauma receive the care and treatment they need while experiencing the love of Jesus so they can become their best selves.

THERE IS HOPE

Every child can
make a new start

It's hard to see a child struggling. Traumatic experiences can leave deep scars that make it difficult to cope with everyday life.

We believe no child is beyond hope. And every child deserves a second chance to become who God made them to be.

A PLACE OF HEALING

Best-in-class,
Christ-centered care

At Dakota Boys and Girls Ranch, kids have a safe place to live, learn, and heal.

We offer best-in-class psychiatric therapy and trauma-informed care designed to address the individual needs of each child.

In everything we do, Christ is our core and our foundation, and every child at the Ranch is respected and accepted.

Your impact as a donor

When you become a Luke 14 Friend, you help answer the call in Luke 14:21-23: “Go out quickly...and bring in the poor, the crippled, the blind and the lame...so that my house will be full.”

‍By giving monthly, you’ll help fund the ongoing commission of Joni and Friends to go out quickly to reach people who are isolated because of their disability and compel them to come in as beloved children of God.

Each month, you’ll help provide medical and mobility support, essential resources, patient advocacy, and spiritual care so every person is welcomed into God’s house.

When you support Dakota Boys and Girls Ranch, you make a life-changing impact in the life of a young person who has struggled to heal from trauma.

From residential treatment programs to individualized education to horse therapy, every dollar you give is put to immediate use to provide for the basic needs and essential care of children at the Ranch.

"The learning environment is just different. It’s a lot more open and I’m more able to focus on getting my work done. When I’m having a tired or really hyper day, there is somewhere I can go to get a little bit of relaxation time … it helps."

- Carter, student at Dakota Memorial School

"The Ranch was a place for me to recollect myself, reflect back on my childhood trauma, and realize that none of it was my fault. My mom and uncle were always telling me I was the problem. It took me years to realize I wasn’t the problem — I was just a kid."

- Julia, Dakota Boys and Girls Ranch resident

"The Ranch gives you a lot of outside time, a lot of exercise, a lot more opportunities. Just overall, you have a lot of people working with you. It’s like everybody here is like holding you steady or pushing you forward."

- Addison, Dakota Boys and Girls Ranch resident
