Holiday Donation Match 2025
All donations up to $25,000 doubled!
“HorseSense has given me unconditional acceptance and support. Ever since I started horseback riding I have been more open minded about what life throws my way and I don't shut down like I used to. Personally I don't think I would be the person I am today without HorseSense.” - Krystail, a HorseSense participant
your donation Can go twice as far this holiday season
Laying the groundwork for the year ahead is essential to the success of our programs and to ensuring we can meet the needs of our participants. The support of our community carries us through the winter months and gives us the time and resources needed to build a strong foundation for the coming year.
Our team cannot do this work without you. And this season, thanks to a generous donor and the De Lacy Family Foundation, your gift will make twice the impact.
This winter, all donations made up to $25,000 will be matched!
One donation will make double the impact and double the memories made in the year ahead. Can we count on you to help us lay this foundational groundwork?
Thank you for being an integral part of our mission this year!
You support is keeping our mission growing strong

In 2025 alone, HorseSense welcomed over 60 individuals through our barn doors - each with their own story, their own goals, and their own breakthroughs. In 2026, we’re ready to do it all again by reaching more individuals and creating more unforgettable moments of growth and connection. Your support this winter is what makes that possible, helping us prepare for the year ahead and build a strong foundation for the impact to come.
Every Donation is a life touched and a new memory made in 2026
“The horses have never minded if Erik told stories that were hard to understand. They don’t mind if his speech is delayed or his balance is off. The horses understand him better than most humans. To see him riding independently, mastering the two-point and trotting is nothing short of a miracle.”
-Marlis O’Brien, Erik’s Mom
