Big Red Barn Retreat

About the Big Red Barn Retreat: 

The mission of the Big Red Barn Retreat is to restore hope to our nation’s heroes (active-duty service members, veterans, reservists, and first responders) by facilitating posttraumatic growth, advancing advocacy, and building a supportive community. Our organization supports those seeking hope, fortitude, and purpose on their growth journey, with our team supporting them every step of the way. 

Funds raised through Midlands Gives will directly support all of our no-cost programs and services, including Warrior PATHH, Struggle Well, yoga, tai chi, art, music therapy, equine-assisted therapy and learning, peer-to-peer groups, meditation, and more. In addition, by supporting our organization, every individual who donates during Midlands Gives will become a member of The Cavalry, our new annual giving society designed to help maintain consistent funding for our life-changing programs and services. 

The Cavalry Giving Society honors individuals whose lifetime generosity advances the mission of the Big Red Barn Retreat and supports those who serve. Each rank level represents a lasting legacy and includes a recognition gift to show our appreciation for your support, as well as exclusive access to discounts on event tickets!

“There is a way to deal with things and not stay in the negative, but see a light out there. I didn’t know that until Warrior PATHH shed that light for me.”

-Hazel Gomez, Firefighter and National Guard

"You walk away from this place knowing you're not alone. Knowing you have teammates. Knowing you have folks to fall back on."
