The LBFA's first CHC fundraiser was in 2016 to strengthen our Sister City connection and to bring awareness to social issues both cities face. Each year, proceeds from the CHC are presented to a deserving non-profit organization, both here in La Crosse, and in Bantry, Ireland.
For 2023, the LBFA supports two horse therapy organizations, HorseSense, Inc, here in La Crosse, and Hairy Henry Care Farm in Bantry. To learn more:
