Pony Up! is a month-long fundraising competition that allows families and businesses to support Saddle Up! in a fun, new format. To compensate for funding typically brought in through in-person events and program fees, we’re asking our friends and families to join us in this virtual derby fundraiser, which supports operating expenses such as feed and care for our therapy horses, financial support for our riders, and maintenance of our 34-acre farm. Choose one of our therapy horses or riders as your team’s mascot, recruit family and friends to join your team, and compete against other teams to raise the most funds for Saddle Up! Participants can earn prizes and special recognition, on top of supporting the Saddle Up! mission.
Saddle Up!’s mission is to provide children and youth with disabilities the opportunity to grow and develop through therapeutic, educational and recreational activities with horses.
