Welcome: Message from the President

Dear Friend,

WELCOME to the new Ben Richey Boys Ranch and Family Program website. We are excited about introducing you to the Ranch and our programs. Our site will provide you the opportunity to see and hear about how we are making a positive difference in the lives of some special children & families.

Welcome to Ben Richey Boys Ranch

Kerry Fortune

We have been provided an amazing opportunity to help children and families improve their lives! Our goal is to help those in our program to create a positive self-image, develop to their full potential, and lead a productive life as a contributing, responsible member of our society.

It is a blessing to come to the Ranch every day and know that we will have a powerful and positive impact on someone’s life that day. These changes happen because we have super kids and families in the programs, a caring staff and generous donors who make all this possible. We hope you will join us on this journey.

One important fact that many of our supporters appreciate about the Ranch, is that Ben Richey Boys Ranch & Family Program does NOT take any state or federal funding and is operating entirely with contributions from community friends, foundations, corporations, clubs and organizations.

Please take a look around the website and, if there is a particular area that piques your interest or a question you might have, please send us an email or give us a call, we would love to hear from you! We are always interested in making new friends and would be honored to include you on our contact list and send you informative newsletters about what is going on at the Ranch.

Come visit the Ranch,

Kerry Fortune

President, Ben Richey Boys Ranch & Family Program
