Supporting
Our Programs
Monetary Donation
Morning
Dove is a non-profit organization and we must look to our friends and
volunteers for support to properly run our facility. We do not
recieve any state or federal assistance and depend upon donations and
grants to help fund our on site and outreach programs.
As
a not-for-profit, Morning Dove depends on private donations from individuals, groups, and
corporate sponsors to maintain the horses and program
facilities.
Monetary donations are also accepted for scholarships for riders and/or
horses. Monetary
donations are used to pay for feed, veterinary and farrier services,
pasture and building maintenance, tack, and riding equipment. We
also accept other types of support listed below. As our programs
grow so does our need for support from the community we serve..

they are ridden and tested with toys and equipment and introduced to
the lift and ramp. They are then tried out in a class with an
