Donations

Thank you for considering donating to SEO! Your donation will go towards rehabilitating neglected horses, training them, and finding them quality adoptive homes.

On average, SEO cares for approximately 60 horses on a daily basis.  SEO spends more than $2,000 per horse, including veterinary care, rehabilitation, and the training needed to ensure the horses find good homes.

There are many ways to help local horses in need, from single, monthly and estate giving to shopping for or on behalf of SEO and donating tack, vehicles and other items. See below for details on each type of donation.
