In 2002, we set sail on our mission with 10 wonderful and committed volunteers. Today we have over 300 per week.
The synergy between our volunteers and the kids makes for a remarkable experience. New peer friendships and mentoring relationships are forged every day. In view of our united purpose, everyone’s troubles and struggles seem to be suspended for a time – a respite for all. There is a lot of hard work to be done and heart wrenching moments to be sure, but for countless volunteers, Storybook has proven a life changing experience.
Storybook is a beautiful 25 acre farm located in Opelika, Al, approximately 20 minutes from the Auburn campus. For those enamored of horses, for those enamored with the beauty of nature or simply enjoy the outdoors, or for those looking to impact the lives of some remarkably courageous children, Storybook Farm is a magical place.
