Double your impact this holiday season!
All donations up to $25,000 will be matched
Winter is the time when our herd rests and our team prepares for another year of breakthroughs — and your support helps set the stage for every confidence-building, life-changing moment that’s coming in 2026. Thanks to a generous anonymous donor, HorseSense received a $10,000 match!
December 8th, 2025 Update: Thank you to the generosity of the De Lacy Family Foundation, they are offering an additional $15,000 match! This now means all donations up to $25,000 will be MATCHED!
This means your gift this Holiday season goes twice as far to support the participants and horses who make HorseSense such a remarkable place!
“The horses have never minded if Erik told stories that were hard to understand. They don’t mind if his speech is delayed or his balance is off. The horses understand him better than most humans. To see him riding independently, mastering the two-point and trotting is nothing short of a miracle.” - Marlis, a HorseSense parent
“Isaac has continued to enjoy working with the horses and volunteers. It gives him something he's excited about and then to talk about.” - Megan, a HorseSense parent
“HorseSense has given me unconditional acceptance and support. Ever since I started horseback riding I have been more open minded about what life throws my way and I don't shut down like I used to. Personally I don't think I would be the person I am today without HorseSense” - Krystail, a HorseSense participant
Isaac, Erik, and Krystail aren’t the only participants that look forward to their time at the barn. In 2025 alone, HorseSense welcomed over 60 individuals through our barn doors - each with their own story, their own goals, and their own breakthroughs. In 2026, we’re ready to do it all again by reaching more individuals and creating more unforgettable moments of growth and connection. Your support this winter is what makes that possible, helping us prepare for the year ahead and build a strong foundation for the impact to come.
Our goals for 2026
- Increase the number of lives touched in our community
- Build new, lasting and impactful community connections
- Expand our Hoof & Hearts Connections Program by bringing schools and day programs in our community to the barn for one-time field trips
- Create new and lasting memories for our participants and their families
This winter is instrumental in helping us reach these goals and your gift fuels our momentum into the upcoming year. Every dollar donated is another life touched and a new memory made in 2026. Make your donation, and impact, go twice as far this Holiday Season.
Your support makes a difference. Thank you!
