The Benevolent Warrior Ranch is a registered 501(c)3 non-profit organization operating out of Asotin, Washington and exclusively serves United States Military Veterans and Active Duty Military Personnel of all branches. Donations to the Benevolent Warrior Ranch can be accepted from individuals and businesses and are tax-deductible. 

BWR finances its operations solely through donations, and offers equine assisted therapy services at no cost to the veteran. We are empowered by our local community and sponsors, other military veterans, and people watching from afar who want to support US Military veterans. The Benevolent Warrior Ranch provides a location, program, and cause to do so.  

There are no paid-employees at the Benevolent Warrior Ranch, but volunteers are always welcome. We have access to local mental health professionals who may serve as volunteer contractors if a veteran needs additional mental health support. All equine assisted therapy sessions and veteran family support services are provided by Benevolent Warrior Ranch founders Matthew Ditto and Lacy Ditto. The Benevolent Warrior Ranch is guided by a diverse Board of Supervisors who serve as passionate volunteers to assist local veterans by supporting and advising this program.
