Join Good Hope Equestrian & Regenerative Farm, Inc. for the fourth annual Run for the Roses fundraising event, a lively and elegant celebration of the 152nd Kentucky Derby. This year’s event carries special significance as Good Hope commemorates its twenty-sixth anniversary, marking more than a quarter century of empowering individuals through equine-assisted therapeutic activities and regenerative agriculture initiatives.

Set in the historic and beautifully restored Prizery in South Boston, this signature community gathering blends southern charm, purpose, and Derby-day excitement. Guests will enjoy live coverage of the pre-races and the Kentucky Derby on jumbo screens, raffle opportunities with themed baskets, a silent auction featuring luxury travel, fine jewelry, original artwork, and other distinctive items, live music, and a menu inspired by classic Derby traditions.

Proceeds from the event directly benefit Good Hope’s cornerstone programs:

• Endless Strides, which provides equine-assisted therapeutic activities that foster independence, confidence, and personal growth for individuals with varying exceptionalities and children in foster care.
• Healthy Habits, which expands regenerative farming education and strengthens local food security through the distribution of fresh, organic produce.

Together, these programs reflect Good Hope’s ongoing commitment to building healthier communities and improving lives through connection, care, and sustainability.

Guests, sponsors, and friends are invited to take part in this unforgettable event celebrating the spirit of the Kentucky Derby while supporting a mission that grows hope and strengthens the heart of our community.
