Sponsor a Member of the Herd

Not everyone can adopt, but anyone can help us care for the animals who need a permanent home.

What sponsorship covers

Your monthly gift goes directly into the day-to-day care of the donkey or mule you sponsor.

  • Hay, grain, and mineral supplements year-round.
  • Vet visits, vaccinations, and emergency care.
  • Farrier visits every 8 weeks, with corrective work as needed.
  • Dental floats, deworming, and senior-care supplements for older residents.
  • Pasture maintenance, fence repair, and shelter upkeep.

Sponsorship levels

  • $25 a month, Hoof Care Friend. Covers a farrier visit and a month of mineral supplement for one animal.
  • $50 a month, Pasture Pal. Hay, grain, and routine vet care for one of our sanctuary residents.
  • $100 a month, Herd Hero. Full monthly care for one of our seniors or special-needs animals.

What you get

  • A photo and bio of the animal you sponsor.
  • Quarterly updates with new photos and a personal note from the volunteer who works with them most.
  • An invitation to our annual Meet Your Sponsor day at the sanctuary.
  • A heads-up, and a hug, if anything changes for your sponsored animal.
