Donate
The more donations we receive, the more horses we can rescue. It’s that simple.
$250. That’s how much it costs per month to provide the very basic care of hay, grain, vaccinations, deworming, and farrier visits for one of our horses.
Add to that barn help, overhead, property, payroll, and business taxes? The number increases significantly. And for those horses who come to us with injuries that require specific veterinary care? It costs hundreds of dollars more each month.
As a nonprofit, People Helping Horses relies on the tax-deductible monetary and in-kind donations of our donors for everything. From horse-related products such as dewormer and blankets to facility needs including fencing, wheelbarrows, and shovels, we simply cannot do the amazing work that we do without your help.
Please consider making a tax-deductible monetary or in-kind donation today. Also, be sure to sign up for our enewsletter where we regularly update our immediate seasonal needs. Make a donation.

In-Kind Donations
Are you a skilled laborer? A top-notch plumber or general contractor? Whatever your expertise, chances are that we could use your help around the barn. In-kind donations are the perfect way to give without opening your wallet. And it may even be tax deductible! Check with your accountant today.
And don’t forget!
Employer Matching Programs
Many large and small corporations across the United States have corporate matching programs that will match dollar-for-dollar any contributions you make to People Helping Horses. Ask your employer’s HR representative for information on their matching program.
Planned Giving, Bequeth
Including PHH in your will insures that the organization will continue to receive your vital support after you die. Direct that your entire interest in certain monies or property be transferred to a designated trust or non-profit corporation. In doing so, your estate will be eligible for a charitable deduction for the full fair-market value of the gift.
An outright gift can take several different legal forms. These include:
A General Bequest
A specified dollar amount in your will is designated to a trust or nonprofit corporation.
A Specific Bequest
You designate certain specific property that you want a particular trust or nonprofit corporation to receive under your will.
A Residuary Bequest
This gives all or a percentage of one’s property after all debts, taxes, expenses, and all other bequests have been paid. This type of bequest can be used instead of or in addition to a general or specific bequest if the size of the estate will allow it. That is, such a residuary bequest ensures that all other beneficiaries receive their bequest from the estate prior to distribution of anything to the trust or nonprofit corporation.
A Contingent Bequest
This provides for the situation in which a beneficiary dies before you do or decides they do not want to receive the bequest in your will. To allow for such an occurrence, you can name a trust or nonprofit corporation as the contingent beneficiary. This will ensure that the property will pass to the trust or nonprofit corporation in one of these situations instead of to unintended beneficiaries.
