Ways to Give
2025 Year-End Giving Campaign
As we close out 2025, we invite you to support StirrUp Purpose and the meaningful equine services our organization provides to community members in search of purpose and healing.
Over the past year, we've seen horses, volunteers and donors transform many lives. We witnessed 81 students connect with horses and learn valuable skills through therapeutic horsemanship, 40 children gain function through equine movement programs and 13 veterans find connection and adventure through a Horse Camp Retreat.
Together, we can continue to stir up purpose—in the lives of those we serve, and in our own lives as well. Interested in supporting our participants? We invite you to make a year-end contribution to StirrUp Purpose and to review our 2025 Newsletter.
Student Scholarships
StirrUp Purpose is committed to providing affordable Horsemanship lessons to our special needs community. However, many of our families struggle to put food on the table and the additional expense of $35 per weekly lesson is not feasible. Additionally, our low lesson fees are a fraction of the actual cost of providing that lesson.
Please help us to reach those low income students needing to find purpose and healing through Therapeutic Horsemanship!
- $175 supports a student for five lessons
- $840 supports a student for 6 months of lessons
- $1,680 supports a student for one year of lessons
Horse Sponsorships
In one year, a horse requires:
- Hay – 7,300 lb
- Grain & Supplements – 548 lb
- Veterinary Maintenance – 5 vaccinations, 1-2 dentals
- Farrier – 7 trims/shoeings
- Water – 3,650 gallons
$3,000 per year provides all the basic needs of our beautiful and talented horse herd!
Annual Horse Sponsors receive:
- A framed photograph of sponsor and their horse on our Wall of Appreciation at the main barn entrance.
- Sponsor highlighted on website and in newsletters.
- Their choice of horse to sponsor
Veterans Retreats
StirrUp Purpose is honored to provide retreats free of charge for veteran participants.
Tents, cots, bags, horses, gear and hearty meals are provided.
Please help us to support our heroes!
$625 supports one veteran for a 4-day retreat.
