We had an exciting week at Cheff last week!

We officially broke ground on the Suzanne UD Parish Therapy Arena, celebrating the start of an exciting new chapter for the organization and culmination of our Raise the Roof capital campaign!

With sunshine overhead and plenty of smiles to go around, staff, board members, and community partners gathered for a small but meaningful ceremony to mark the moment. Cabinet members and staff were joined by representatives from CSM Group and Consumers Credit Union, all coming together to celebrate the project getting underway.

“This has been a long time coming, and it was so special to share the moment with people who have helped make it possible,” said Tara East, Executive Director.

Rooted in Cheff’s mission to enhance the lives of individuals who have disabilities through equine-assisted services while leading the industry in education, the Suzanne UD Parish Therapy Arena will play a key role in expanding access to care. The new space is designed to support targeted mental health services and hippotherapy programming, helping meet a growing need within the community for innovative, relationship-based approaches to wellness and healing.

As demand for these services continues to rise, the arena will allow Cheff to serve more individuals and families in a safe, accessible, and purpose-built environment.

Now that construction has officially begun, there’s a real sense of excitement in the air as everyone looks forward to watching the arena take shape.

With muddy boots and hearts so wide,
You’re right there walking side by side.
From leading horses, slow or spry,
To sharing laughs that lift us high.

You brush, you tack, you cheer, you guide,
You’re basically magic (we can’t deny!).
With every step and every neigh,
You make a brighter kind of day.

THANK YOU, VOLUNTEERS!

It's Volunteer Appreciation Week! At Cheff, we have over 130 regular program volunteers who contribute (combined) thousands of hours to our clients, programs, and horses every year. We absolutely could not do what we do without them!

PS: we're always looking for dedicated volunteers to add to the team! If you or someone you know would like to join us as a volunteer, please give us a call at 269-731-4471 or hop on our website at www.cheffcenter.org/volunteers to learn more!
