Thousands of Dollars Raised for Local Fosters Home

During the Ranch Rally, featured sponsor Ritchie Industries held a raffle for a commemorative 2017 Rally cooler. The money raised through the raffle is being given to the Foster’s Home for Children of Stephenville.

Foster’s Home for Children has been helping the Texas community for 57 years. Sherwood and Myrtie Foster chartered the children’s home in 1958 and the first children were taken into care in the winter of 1960. Since that time, Foster’s Home has provided for the needs of over 4,000 Texas children. From one home located on a 55-acre site in the northern edge of Stephenville, the facilities have grown to include 12 residential group care homes; an administration building; the Mabee Health, Education and Services Center; a commissary; the Pittman Family Center, a multi-purpose facility; a barn and livestock pens.

Throughout the Rally, horsemen raised $2,352 for the Foster’s Home for Children. Leon Yantis, the owner of Ritchie Industries, matched the money raised to bring the grand total to $4,704.

“Ritchie’s generosity never ceases to amaze me. It’s one of the many reasons why I’m proud to partner with such a great company,” Clinton says.
