We invite you to join us in making a powerful impact in the lives of children through the PonyUp4Kids Foundation. At PonyUp4Kids, we’re committed to empowering children from diverse backgrounds by providing unique, hands-on experiences with horses that build confidence, resilience, and compassion. By donating today, you can play a crucial role in helping these children grow and thrive through the magic of equine-assisted programs.
Each dollar you give supports our mission to provide educational and therapeutic equine experiences, especially to those who may not otherwise have the chance. We know that horses have the power to unlock potential in ways that traditional settings sometimes can’t. The children we work with develop essential life skills, from teamwork and leadership to responsibility and self-confidence—all while building special bonds with our gentle horses.
As a donor, you’re not only contributing to these children’s immediate experiences; you’re also investing in their futures. Numerous studies show that equine-assisted activities positively impact mental health, social skills, and self-esteem, benefits that last long after their time with us.
Together, we can make a lasting difference. Please join us in giving these children the chance to thrive. Your generosity will help us provide a safe, nurturing environment where they can develop the skills and confidence they need to navigate the world with courage and kindness.
Thank you for believing in the power of horses and children. With your support, we can continue to create unforgettable, life-affirming experiences.
PonyUp4Kids attended the Ryan McElroy Children's Cancer Foundation's annual fundraising Octoberfest. The PU4K team brought along spring action horses for small children guests to get in the saddle and their famous equine ambassador, Cody the Shetland pony. Guests at the event enjoyed learning about horses and interacting with Cody.
