Challenge Unlimited is a non-profit
organization dedicated to helping people with and without disabilities
learn life skills through a variety of programs centered on horse-related
activities. It was created out of the Donovan Family's desire to share
the benefits of their Ironstone Farm and the use of their horses with
a community of people whose lives have been challenged with disability.
The program grew through the hard work and dedication of volunteers
who unselfishly gave of their time and energy in the same spirit of
giving begun by the Donovans. Today, Challenge Unlimited relies on the
generosity of our extended family to support its continued service to
the community. We celebrate this generosity by honoring individuals
who epitomize the Ironstone Farm "Spirit of Giving."
