WAYS TO GIVE
SPONSOR A HORSE
Special Spirit’s equine partners are the heart and soul of our programs. And it takes a special horse to be fully present and calm for our adaptive riders and equine-assisted activities.
We ensure our horses receive the best possible care. The cost of feed, supplements, annual shots, medications, farrier care, medical & dental care, staff care and training for one of our horses is about $6,000 per year.
Your support will enable us to continue to provide the highest quality of care while continuing to keep the cost of our therapies affordable.
