1927 Baker Ranch Rodeo


Triumph Foundation’s mission is to help individuals with Spinal Cord Injuries to triumph over their disability and to inspire them to keep moving forward with their lives by pushing themselves to get better every day.

Triumph Foundation’s mission is to help individuals with Spinal Cord Injuries to triumph over their disability and to inspire them to keep moving forward with their lives by pushing themselves to get better every day.

Every Christmas season, Triumph Foundation goes to hospitals all over Southern California to visit people who have recently become paralyzed to deliver Care Baskets full of resources, have a party and bring a message of hope.

As you can imagine, it is hard for anyone to be in the hospital after suffering a paralyzing injury, but it is particularly difficult when you are in the hospital for the holidays.

The Triumph Foundation will be going to more than a dozen hospitals and rehabilitation centers this year and will be giving out more than 100 Care Baskets and they need you to get involved.

Here are six ways you can help:

– Care Basket Donations

Our Care Baskets include lots of goodies to sweeten someone’s hospital stay and to cheer them up.

We need donations of store bought goodies like candy, popcorn, & treats. If you like to knit or sew we love to include handmade blankets and scarves. And we are collecting small presents too.

This is a chance to give to someone in need without breaking the piggy bank.
List of Items Needed

– Attention Bakers

We need people to help us bake some REAL holiday cheer.

We are hoping some of you will make cookies, brownies, cakes, and sweets to bring to the hospitals.

Let us know if you are interested so we can coordinate a day to have you bake and deliver them to us right before one of our hospital visits so it is fresh.

Sign up to Bake

– Eat-for-a-Cause Fundraiser

On Thursday December 1 from 5-10 p.m. we are holding a fundraiser at the Route 66 Classic Grill located at 18730 Soledad Canyon Rd. Canyon Country, CA 91351.

Join us for dinner, and 10% of the proceeds will be donated to Triumph. Plus we will have a Silent Auction, and it will be a fun get together for the holiday. This is a perfect time to drop off the goodies for our Care Baskets.

– Care Basket Building Night

Triumph will be holding a Care Basket building party on Saturday December 3rd from 4-7 PM in Santa Clarita.

We will need a dozen able-body volunteers to be our elves filling up the Care Baskets full of resources, goodies, treats, and presents.

Join our Assembly Team

– Win a Princess Cruises Getaway

Win a 4-day Princess Cruises Getaway while helping Triumph raise funds for a transport van. When you purchase a $100 raffle ticket, you and a guest can cruise round-trip from Los Angeles in a balcony stateroom.

Raffle winner will be drawn on Tuesday December 27th.
