Financial Gifts
Since 1986, Pegasus Farm has operated and grown through the generosity of individual donors, corporations, foundations, churches, civic organizations and others too numerous to mention. Without this support, the services offered by Pegasus Farm would not exist.
There are a number of ways to contribute to the Mission of Pegasus Farm:
The mission of Pegasus Farm is to create a community that holistically supports and empowers people with diverse needs through therapeutic equestrian programs, vocational services, and recreational and social activities.

Cole Surmay Scholarship Fund
Many of our program participants struggle to afford the cost of therapeutic riding lessons because of extraordinary medical costs or other expenses related to the participant's disability. In order to eliminate any financial barriers that would prevent individuals with disabilities from accessing our programs, Pegasus, along with the help of other generous donors, has established the Cole Surmay Memorial Scholarship Fund. Distributions from this fund are used to help cover participant lesson fees. Your donation of $1,000 will enable Pegasus to provide a year's worth of lessons to a participant who could not otherwise afford the cost of the therapy program.
Horse Sponsorship
Pegasus Farm maintains a herd of 35 specially trained therapy horses year-round. The average cost of caring for one horse is nearly $3,500 each year. You can sponsor a horse at any level: a year, a month, a week, etc. Many of our Horse Sponsors spend time getting to know their horse and feel very good about the work they do for our participants.
