Equest has never turned away anyone due to the inability to pay. Instead, we have sought out businesses and individuals who want to make a difference in our community and have a tender heart for those with disabilities. Your donation could change a child’s destiny. If you are in doubt, we invite to visit our center and see FIRST HAND therapeutic riding in action. Talk to the riders, volunteers and parents. Their stories will touch you beyond belief!
Rider & Horse Sponsorship Program
Sponsor a Rider
Over the past 32 years Equest has touched the lives of hundreds of special needs individuals. Equest is acutely aware of the many medical bills and financial hardships our families experience on a regular basis. We’ve worked tirelessly to keep our riding costs down through fundraisers, grants and contributions. In spite of this, and especially in light of the current economic climate in our country, many of our riders’ families still struggle and look to Equest’s sponsorship program for help. We’ve asked businesses and individuals to participate by underwriting a full or partial scholarship for one of our special needs riders. While this program has been quite successful, we need to enlarge it, as the current need is greater that our present resources. Can you or your business help?
Sponsorship for Rider Actual Cost Discounted Cost
For 1 Lesson $ 75 $40
For an 8 week session $ 600 $ 320
** Many riders need larger or even FULL SCHOLARSHIPS.
Sponsor a Therapy Horse
The therapy horse is truly the provider, the caregiver, the friend, the confidant, the magic, the joy, the love. Horses do not laugh when told secrets. They do not shun those who are a little different. With their therapy horse, participants experience true nonjudgmental love and friendship. For many riders this experience is the first such experience of their lives. Many pieces are so critical to a therapeutic riding program, but none more important than having quality therapy horses. Without these wonderful horses, there would be no Equest Center.
Your sponsorship of an Equest Therapy horse will impact all of the 185 special needs individuals who participate at Equest Center each week throughout the year! Your name/ your business’ name will be proudly listed as Horse sponsor on our website all year long.
Sponsorship for Therapy Horse for 1 year $5,500
Monthly Therapy Horse Sponsorship $ 459
