Make a Donation
People often tell us that they want to donate, but they are on a limited budget, and so often monetary donations are accompanied by, "I'm sorry it's not much, but it's all I have...." Still others feel that if they can't give money, they can't help at all.
This is an unfortunate myth in the non-profit world! No donation is too small, and there are many ways to help our horses without spending a cent! There are even options for local business owners!
Help Us Help Them
All of your donations directly benefit our rehab horses - from covering the cost of feed, medical care, and training, to offsetting operational expenses. It costs about $100 per day to care for our horses, but you can help by choosing from several non-monetary or financial donation options. Go green by contributing to our recycling fundraisers, fill a need by donating new or used items in good condition, or choose something from our wish list! You can also donate directly to individual horses (or herds) through our sponsorship program.
Of course, one of the most overlooked donations - which doesn't cost a penny - is time! Volunteers form the backbone of our organization, and even people who are afraid of horses can help. Whether it's office skills, fundraising, construction, maintentance, or other services, we have a place for you! Learn more about our volunteer opportunities.
