A Heartwarming Note

Image
Today Jacob's Fund received a heartwarming note from Jacob P.'s mom. Here's what she said: I would like to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude to Jacob’s Fund for awarding my son, Jacob, a hippotherapy scholarship. This generous support has eased a significant financial burden on our family and has allowed him to continue participating in a therapy that he truly loves and benefits from. Jacob has shown tremendous growth through the therapy, and it has greatly improved his balance, coordination, and overall strength. Beyond the physical benefits, it has also strengthened his confidence and deepened his love for animals. He looks forward to each session, and seeing his progress has been incredibly rewarding for our family. As a special needs family, we face many medical and therapeutic expenses. One of Jacob’s specialists does not accept insurance, making each visit a substantial out of pocket cost. In addition, Jacob underwent a stem cell treatment through Duke Uni...

Harper-Lyn's Story

Image
We at Jacob Beachy Fund are so touched by Harper-Lyn's generosity. As we follow her journey, our hearts are lifted by her amazing triumphs and beautiful spirit. We're humbly grateful to have helped. If you've donated to Jacob's Fund, please know that you have made a very real difference in a child's life. When I look back on the toughest years of motherhood I think of 2014-2016. It was the onset of our Autism journey and I felt like I was on auto-pilot the entire time. Despite the challenges of those early years, we were blessed. Harper-Lynn started multiple early intervention therapies including hippotherapy through her occupational therapist. While insurance covered her therapies, hippotherapy was not covered. In the fall of 2014, Harper-Lynn was chosen by the Jacob Beachy Fund to receive a scholarship that covered 100% of her hippotherapy fees. We met her benefactors Glenna Fisher and Bernie Fisher the next year and have stayed in touch since through Facebook....

Alayna Shines in Hippotherapy, and in Life

Image
  Alayna: the name means bright shining light. How perfectly right it is for this little girl! From the mom ent we first saw her at Triangle Therapy Services, we were captivated. She’s a tiny powerhouse who just turned two this summer, with soft dark curls and sweet loving eyes. Here she is, riding backward with amazing balance, and with her occupational therapist Shannon, and a visitor who really wanted to hold her. Jacob's Fund grants funds for hippotherapy to children with developmental impairments whose families cannot afford the cost of using the horse as a therapy tool. Jacob's Fund carries forward the loving, generous spirit of Jacob Noah Beachy, our founder's grandson. Jacob's experience in hippotherapy bordered on magical. He learned to walk and run; his vocabulary expanded exponentially. Honoring his life by helping other children achieve their potential and live a fuller, richer life is our mission.  We continue to be able to help children because caring pe...
