Stricker Sunshine Rescue Ranch, Inc. was established in April of 2023. Alan & Tammy Stricker have been personally rescuing horses and donkeys since 2014. We are now a 501c3 non-profit organization. Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate, retrain and rehome horses and donkeys in need. Horses and donkeys come to SSRR from many situations including but not limited to owner surrenders, sheriff seizures, auctions, and kill pens. Our goal is to heal each rescue physically, emotionally and spiritually. It is amazing what love, proper medical care, farrier care, and proper nutrition can do. One life at a time! We can do this as a community. Non-profit 501c3.
Stricker Sunshine Rescue Ranch—a place of hope, healing, and second chances.
Stricker Sunshine Rescue Ranch is more than just a ranch; it is a sanctuary where the broken find solace, the neglected rediscover care, and the forgotten are given the chance to shine once more. Here, we dedicate our hearts, hands, and resources to rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming horses in need.
Every horse that arrives at our gates carries a story. Some have suffered from neglect, others have been abandoned, and many have known nothing but hardship. But through patience, love, and unwavering commitment, we transform their pain into possibility. Our team works tirelessly to nurse these magnificent creatures back to health, to rebuild their trust in humans, and to show them the kindness they have always deserved.
None of this would be possible without the generosity of our community, the dedication of our volunteers, and the unwavering support of those who believe in our mission. Every donation, every hour spent tending to these animals, every voice that speaks up for their welfare brings us one step closer to a world where no horse suffers needlessly.
But our mission does not stop at rescue. We believe that horses have an incredible power to heal—not just themselves, but also the people around them. Our goal is to eventually connect rescued horses with individuals seeking peace, therapy, and companionship. Whether it’s a child experiencing the magic of their first horseback ride or a veteran finding solace in the steady heartbeat of a gentle giant, the impact of these horses reaches far beyond the ranch.
So today, I ask you to stand with us. Whether through advocacy, volunteerism, or support, you have the power to change lives—both human and equine alike. Together, we can continue to turn heartbreak into hope, fear into trust, and despair into new beginnings.
Stricker Sunshine Rescue Ranch is not just about rescuing horses—it’s about rewriting their stories. Let us continue to be the authors of their second chances.

Tammy and Alan appreciate all of our caring supporters that help us throughout the year. With your support, it ensures that rescue horses and donkeys will keep receiving the care they need. We cannot do this without each of you. One life at a time.
Our goal at Stricker Sunshine Rescue Ranch is for each rescue to find their forever person/family. Adopting a rescued horse and/or donkey is very rewarding! Adopting is actually helping 2 lives! This will allow us to help more in need.
We are always in need of an extra hand and the horses/donkeys always need the extra love! There are a variety of volunteering opportunities available. Please send us an e-mail or message directly. We do require schedules times or days.
Visitors are welcome by appointment only as our staff is hard at work.
