FUND A SESSION TO TRANSFORM A LIFE
When you Fund a Session at Little Bit Therapeutic Riding Center, you really Fund a Strength, Fund an Inclusion, Fund a Walk, Fund a Crawl, Fund a Voice, Fund a Courage, Fund a Confidence, Fund a Calmness, Fund an Independence, Fund a Friendship, and so much more for a child or adult with a disability.
If you are attending the in-person Auction on April 25, please wait and raise your bid card high during the Live Auction when asked to make a donation to Fund a Session!
If you are not attending Little Bit's in-person Auction on April 25, please make as generous a gift as you can online to Fund a Session!
If you have questions or would like to make a donor-advised fund or stock gift, please contact Director of Development Sharon Soldenwagner at (425) 882-1554 x117

PURPOSE
Funds raised at the 41st Annual Reins of Life Gala Auction support Little Bit’s life-changing equine-assisted services. Currently, our program participants pay less than 35 percent of the actual program cost. Your support of this event, in any form and at any level, allows Little Bit to keep our program fees as low as possible while serving as many people with disabilities as we possibly can.
Please join us on Saturday, April 25, so we can ensure Little Bit’s continued success in transforming the lives of people with disabilities. We look forward to expanding our Little Bit community while reflecting on and raising awareness of the Little Bit mission.

REGISTRATION
REINS OF LIFE GALA AUCTION REGISTRATION IS TEMPORARILY PAUSED
Dear Little Bit Supporters: Our community has purchased tickets for the 2026 Reins of Life Gala Auction in record numbers, and we feel deeply grateful for everyone’s support. As of April 1 at 4:30 p.m., we have paused our registration site for the Gala since we are extremely close to venue capacity. At this time, we are reviewing our table seating and encourage anyone who is interested in purchasing a ticket to reach out to Development Manager Callie Hall at chall@littlebit.org to join the wait list. We hope to be able to add a limited number of guests once we are able to review our seating plan. Thank you for your patience.
For those wondering, this is not an April Fool’s Day joke!
