donate

Caring for our horses can vary depending on the health, age, history, and condition of each horse. We rely completely on donations to keep the sanctuary running and our residents happy and healthy. Monthly donations especially help us address our most pressing care needs and allow us to budget for regular expenses throughout the year. All contributions go directly toward operating the sanctuary and caring for horses:

  • Feed, Hay, Medications & Supplements

  • Veterinary, Farrier, and Equine Dental Care

  • Stall Shavings & Other Barn Necessities

  • Fuel and Electricity Costs

  • Fence/Facility Repairs & Upgrades

  • Insurance, Land Taxes, and Other Operational Expenses

  • There are several ways to donate to us:

    • Donate online through our website and social channels. Make a single or recurring donation. Recurring contributions can be made for any amount, and processed automatically for you. Just select the “Make this a monthly donation”

  • Many companies have matching gift programs, which means they will match any donation you make to the charity of your choice, so long as the charity is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization (which we are!). Check with your Human Resources Department to see if they offer a matching gift program; with one quick call, you could double your contribution!


A registered not-for-profit, Hope Springs Eternal Horse Sanctuary relies on contributions to feed and maintain our horses, and to save more horses heading for slaughter. Tax deductible donations help us pay for medicines, grain, hay, shavings, and farrier and vet fees. With plenty of loving, knowledgeable care and 167 acres of rolling hills, grazing land, hay fields, woods and spring-fed ponds, we hope to expand HSE and provide rescue for more horses in need.
