Sponsors, including the Advocare Foundation, Ltd., Cornelia Corbett, and TECO Energy with many others, underwrote the costs for the event allowing 100% of funds raised that evening to go directly towards Quantum programs.

The Holidays are always special at Quantum Leap Farm. We put up decorations and throw a few parties for our participants, donors and volunteers. The horses wear reindeer antlers and Buddy (Edie’s labrador) puts on a few pounds panhandling at buffets.

We still need volunteers every day–in fact, more than ever since so many regulars are leaving town and spending some well-deserved time with their families. Read More
