Horses are looking for sponsors

$4,200 covers all costs for 1 year. ($350/month)

Our horses are the life-blood of this program! The average cost per year to provide food, veterinarian service, farrier service and daily care is $4,200 for each of our many horses. You can help by sponsoring one of our gentle giants for one year.

Families are hoping for financial help

$420 provides an opportunity for a child to ride! ($35/month)

Many families are hoping for financial help. Riders are asked to pay a small portion of the cost of a session but for many the cost is prohibitive. As the need for therapeutic riding continues to increase, Pride Stables is committed to its policy to never refuse any rider the opportunity regardless of their financial situation.

Horses are looking for stall sponsorship

$900 provides a horse with a safe happy indoor home for 1 year. ($75/month)

Repairs, maintenance and upgrades to water bowls, feed bowls, stall structures, and ensuring good quality “footing” are all a part of the ongoing maintenance required to keep our horses healthy, happy and safe in their indoor homes.

Paddock upgrades and maintenance

$1,200 per year ensures our horses are safe in their outdoor homes.  ($100/month)

Sponsoring a paddock helps to cover the cost of keeping our fences and fields in good repair. As a working farm, we want to keep our paddocks safe for our special equine friends.

If you could receive only one gift what would it be?

Would you ask for the chance to know what it feels like to walk? How about the chance to accomplish something that you never thought possible? Have you always wanted a pony?

What if you could give these gifts to someone else?

As you commemorate a special birthday or milestone event in your life, or simply celebrate the holiday season, consider a donation to Pride Stables.

Your gift will provide opportunities for over 350 children who take part in therapeutic horseback riding at our facility. And as we plan for the year ahead, your ongoing support becomes even more critical.

With your sponsorship of a child, a horse, a paddock, or a stall, you can make a difference that will last a life time. We realize that a large contribution may not be possible all at once. As a monthly donor, you can give a timeless gift to Pride Stables.

This year as you send out your holiday greetings, please consider sending one more with a gift for someone you may not know. You will be giving the chance to “walk” without a walker, to “see” without sight, and to believe in the invisible. You can give these special gifts to children in our community.

On behalf of everyone at Pride Stables, we thank you!

Sponsorship Recognition

Our donors are special members of our team! We offer appreciation plaques throughout our stables, arena, and on our Wall of Pride. Naming opportunities are available for stalls, paddocks, and equipment. As well, donors are recognized in our newsletters.

Upon discussion with our donors, many more opportunities are available. Contact us at 519-653-4686 or via email for additional information.

All gifts are recognized with the smile from a thankful child!

Your contributions are greatly appreciated. Please make cheques payable to Pride Stables. Visa or Mastercard donations are also gratefully accepted.

For many who cannot walk, our horses are their legs.
For some who cannot see, they are their eyes.
For others who have trouble communicating,
love needs no words.
