When you "adopt," or sponsor, a horse, you commit to supporting that horse by covering the basic costs of feed and hay, vaccines and worming, farrier work (blacksmith) and upkeep of tack (bridle, saddle, other equipment).
Your donation is tax-deductible and, in return, you'll have the satisfaction of knowing you are helping to care for a very special creature of God. We will "package" your sponsorship with a photograph, certificate and visiting privileges that wrap into a wonderful gift-giving opportunity.

There are two levels of adoption:
Full Adoption - $50 each month, $150 quarterly or $600 per year
Choose your horse (if your first and second choices are no longer available, the RVR ranch staff will select a horse for you). You will be covering food and basic veterinary, as well as farrier and grooming, expenses at the Ranch for a year.
Partial Adoption - $25 each month, $75 quarterly or $300 per year
You will share your horse with another person and together your donations will be used toward that horse's food, veterinary and grooming expenses for a year.
