Program accomplishments

  • BY ALL ACCOUNTS 2024 WAS A GOOD YEAR. THE NUMBER OF CLIENTS WE WERE ABLE TO FINANCIALLY SUPPORT THROUGH GRANTS AND HARDSHIP SCHOLARSHIPS INCREASED IN FY 2024. IN 2024, WE SAW AN INCREASE IN DONATIONS AS A RESULT OF FUNDRAISERS, CORPORATE CONTRIBUTIONS, AND INDIVIDUAL CONTRIBUTIONS. THE INCREASE IN DONATIONS COUPLED WITH LOWER-THAN-EXPECTED DIRECT SERVICE EXPENSES HAS PROVIDED US WITH A LARGER THAN EXPECTED CASH RESERVE AS WE ENTERED 2025. THIS CASH RESERVE WILL PROVIDE A CUSHION FOR ANTICIPATED INFLATIONARY INCREASES IN OUR EQUINE CARE EXPENSES AND EXPECTED INCREASES IN OUR STAFF PAYROLL EXPENSES IN 2025 AS WE ADD DIRECT SERVICES STAFF.
