Make a donation

As a 501c3 nonprofit organization, we rely on the generous contributions of supporters to help us provide care for the animals we rescue and operate programs that serve our community members.

We greatly appreciate donations of any amount. As a supporter, you can make a one-time donation, monthly donations, sponsor a particular animal, or even share the mission of Happy Dog Ranch Horse Sanctuary with your own network through a peer-to-peer fundraising campaign.


What your contribution supports

By rescuing horses in difficult situations and providing education around animal welfare, we help end animal suffering. In addition, our program partners work with our herd to provide mental health and personal growth experiences for diverse groups in our community – such as adults and children with physical or cognitive difficulties, cancer patients, those experiencing trauma, and those seeking a unique way to reconnect, change behaviors and achieve personal goals.

Donations help support the care of our rescued horses and other farm animals and help grow mental health and educational programs held at Happy Dog Ranch Horse Sanctuary.

Corporate sponsors

We encourage businesses – both large and small – to team up with Happy Dog Ranch to change the lives of horses and people. Becoming a corporate partner sends a public message about your commitment, not only to saving the lives of animals, but to transforming the lives of community members.

Other ways to help

Sponsoring a barn, pasture or special event is another way to join the Happy Dog Ranch mission, giving you or your organization visibility to thousands of visitors at our ranch and recognition on our website and our social media platforms.

Payroll giving to Happy Dog Ranch Horse Sanctuary is an easy way for employees to support and feel connected to the community. Staff who participate in workplace giving programs feel more fulfilled and engaged at work and have 75% longer tenures in the workplace.

We also accept planned and legacy gifts as well as non-cash gifts. Please email info@happydogranch.org for more information.
