How to Help

Our therapeutic riding program is dependent on volunteers, donations, sponsorships, fundraisers and discounted professional services from the community. It is through all of your efforts that we can bring our program to our community. All donations go directly to supporting the program by paying for expenses such as boarding fees, vet bills, insurance, etc.

Our instructors are paid out of the fees collected from our clients.

We are a nonprofit corporation conforming to IRC Section 501(c)(3) Federal ID #91-1762639, so all donations are tax deductible. Your support is vital to the success of our program!
