Horse Sponsorship
| Horse Sponsorship Flyer |
One of the best ways to support the Center for Adaptive Riding and our mission is to sponsor one of our special herd members. Equine-assisted services offer great physical, emotional, sensory, relationship, and cognitive benefits, but it comes at a significant cost. Basic care and feeding of a horse costs us over $5,000 per year, per horse. Lesson fees only cover a small fraction of these costs, and a Horse Sponsorship is a great way to make a meaningful contribution.
All funds received through The Sponsor A Horse Program will be used for the care and maintenance of a sound, healthy, and well cared for herd. Funds are used for feed, bedding, shoes, veterinary care, supplements, etc.
Individuals, Groups, Organizations or Corporations can all make pledges for the upkeep of a particular horse. You and/or your company will receive recognition of your generosity on our website, in our newsletters, and on our social media. You will receive a Certificate of Sponsorship with a photo of your horse and we will place one on your horse’s stall. We will keep you up to date on your horse throughout the year. We invite you to visit your horse as well.
Contact us at 775-329-1839 to schedule a visit and begin your sponsorship.

Community Foundation of Western Nevada
Benefits of therapeutic riding and horsemanship include increased core strength, balance, coordination, flexibility, sensory integration, circulation, fine and gross motor function, confidence, independence and communication skills. EAS has been proven beneficial for a variety of special needs, including Autism, PTSD, Stroke/CVA, Cerebral Palsy, Multiple Sclerosis, Down Syndrome, ADD/ADHD, Traumatic Brain Injury, Spinal Injury, Chromosomal Disorders, Developmental Delay and Socioemotional/Behavioral issues.
Support the Center for Adaptive Riding in continuing to provide excellence in equine-assisted activities and quality care to their horses by choosing a donation level that suits you. Every dollar donated makes a difference in the lives of our participants, their families, our horses, staff and volunteers, and our community.
This is what you can make happen with a grant of $1,000 to $10,000. Our current funding priorities are:
1. $1,000 can provide a rider scholarship for one season of therapeutic horseback riding lessons.
2. $2,500 for a 50-foot round pen. A round pen allows an instructor to have a smaller, confined space to work with a rider and a horse off-lead. Ground work is particularly useful in grief therapy, and is an integral part of our Veterans’ program. We occasionally use it with people who cannot be on horseback. Ground work develops trust and communication between rider and horse, which carries into relations with other people. Ground work facilitates success in the saddle.
3. $10,000 for horse care. It takes a lot of time and resources to provide quality care for our horses, including feed and supplements, hoof trimming, veterinary care, equine dentistry, training and housing. What our equine members provide for our riders is priceless.
Call Nikki at 775-343-5858 to talk with her about these exciting grant opportunities. To make a grant from your Community Foundation Donor Advised Fund, please contact a member of the Community Foundation of Western Nevada Stewardship Team at 775-333-5499.
