Partnerships Built For Growth

Keeping The Barn Doors Open

At PonyUp4Kids Foundation in Dutchess County, a young participant arrived unable to use words to communicate. She expressed herself only through occasional animal sounds, signaling comfort or discomfort in the simplest ways. When partnered with a gentle pony, something extraordinary began to unfold.


Through routine — brushing, feeding, and showing love — she discovered a safe space where her emotions were understood. The pony’s trust became the bridge to confidence. Over time, those small sounds grew into purposeful actions, and eventually into spoken words.


The breakthrough moment came when she surprised her parent by speaking to a reporter, proudly sharing how caring for the pony made her happy and gave her responsibility. What began as silence became a voice filled with joy, ownership, and hope.


This single story reflects the broader mission of PonyUp4Kids: our horses become healers, and people discover strength through connection.


For sponsors, this is more than charity — it is a strategic investment. 

Cause‑related marketing consistently delivers measurable ROI, with sponsors experiencing 10–30% increases in sales, stronger customer loyalty, and enhanced brand reputation. By keeping the barn doors open, your sponsorship ensures more children, families, veterans, and trauma survivors experience lasting change — while your business gains premium visibility, tax‑advantaged returns, and community leadership.


Your gift of giving fuels transformation. Your sponsorship keeps voices like hers alive.
