Sponsor or foster a horse

If you are interested in supporting a horse, but you are unable to adopt one, please consider sponsoring one of our special equine friends. Learn more about opportunities to sponsor a horse here.

Fostering is another great way you can help Serenity by making room for us to save another horse's life. If you have the facilities and time to care for a horse, but are not ready for the lifelong commitment that comes with adoption, please consider fostering one of our residents. It's also a good way to get to know a horse you are considering adopting. If you are interested in fostering a horse, please email Patricia at patricia@serenityequinerescue.com

Donate your time or experience

We depend on the contributions of volunteers to achieve our mission. Our volunteers help with:

Chores around the barn such as mucking out stalls, picking paddocks, and morning and afternoon feeds

Socializing, grooming, exercising and training horses

Staffing events and educating the public

Administrative work, grantwriting, advocacy and fundraising support

Download an application form and email it along with a signed release form (a minor's release form should be used if you are under 18) to our Volunteer Coordinator, or simply send an email for more information: volunteer@serenityequinerescue.com.

Corporate giving/matching

Does your company offer a corporate giving or matching program for donations or time volunteered? Inquire with your human resources, corporate citizenship or corporate social responsibility team and put Serenity on your list of supported organizations!

For information on business sponsorships of our events or programs, please see our Sponsorship page. If you have any questions about donating, please don't hesitate to contact us.
