The Center depends upon gifts to offer scholarships to children who would otherwise be unable to participate. Gifts in any amount are accepted through the Gallastar Foundation, a 503-C, non-profit organization. All gifts are tax-deductable. If you have ideas or questions about therapeutic riding, please contact us.
While we're grateful for contributions in any amount, we encourage those with a sincere interest in our programs to become sponsors at Gallastar. Sponsorship of a horse includes a once a month visit for the sponsor. The visit may include lots of carrot feeding and a short ride for children.
