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 (blacksmith) and 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.
