The Gentle Barn is nonprofit animal sanctuary dedicated to rescuing and rehabilitating abused and neglected animals with locations in California, Tennessee, and Missouri. The nonprofit is on a mission of inspiring kindness and compassion towards animals, our planet, and each other. Not only has it helped heal animals, but it has helped inspired healing in humans as well.

Over the past 25 years, The Gentle Barn has rescued, healed and placed thousands of animals and in turn healed humans who visit from all walks of life through innovative programs, including Cow Hug Therapy and Equine Therapy, along with field trips, private tours, and weekly open-to-the-public Sundays. This year, The Gentle Barn is also celebrating another huge milestone: 1 million visitors!

You can join The Gentle Barn to celebrate all of these accomplishments during the “Twilight Tails” soiree on August 24th in Santa Clarita, California. Mingle with our rescued animals, sip on cocktails, and enjoy vegan hors d'oeuvres while connecting with fellow animal lovers and hearing the stories of The Gentle Barn from Ellie and Jay and celebrity guest speakers. “From rescuing animals from neglect and abuse to providing programs for our community, we have created a sanctuary where animals and humans alike come to heal,” shares The Gentle Barn.

Funds raised during this exciting anniversary soiree in the barnyard will directly support The Gentle Barn’s ongoing mission to rescue, rehabilitate, and provide a forever home for animals in need. Additionally, these funds will help expand programs that bring healing and hope to people from all walks of life, including veterans, children in foster care, and individuals recovering from trauma and abuse.
