Become A Sponsor
Sponsorship supports permanent residents, and residents who are being rehabbed and are not yet ready to be adopted. Sponsors make a monthly commitment to their horse, at a minimum of $50 per month. A sponsor can visit their horse both during volunteer hours or via appointment most days. A sponsorship makes a great gift for the horse lover in your life.
Sponsors may not ride, but some horses enjoy grooming, groundwork, or giving special treats. We can guide you in which horse would be the best for you.
If you're interested in sponsoring, please reach out to us on FB or send us a message via the contact us box.
Donna is an elderly mule who has been at the rescue for many years. She originally came out of a kill pen - her friends have long since been adopted, but Donna has been clear that she wants to stay at the rescue. She does not like to be brushed or pet, but will often be thrilled to take a carrot or apple.

Thank you Laurie!
Bruno is a baby diverted from auction. He has a serious neurological condition and is recovering. While he does so, sponsors can help support his time at the rescue. He is very friendly and loves brushing, but due to his issues cannot be lead (no pulling on his head or neck).

Thank you Nancy J. and Razzmatazz for being his sponsors!
Tonto is a middle aged paint pony gelding. He is mischievous and also has some soundness issues. Between those 2 things he is not adoptable, but enjoys attention and would love sponsors to spoil him rotten (rotten-er!).

Margarita is a Very Lucky filly, who despite being born with a crooked leg ended up here. She underwent surgery at Michigan State in June and will be slowly straightening out over the next many months. While she does, sponsors to support her healing are greatly needed.
