Thank you for considering a donation to TROtt! Without the generosity of the community, we simply could not continue our programs. We are a registered charity and all donations of $20 or more will receive a charitable tax receipt.
There are many ways to support our programs:
One Time Donation
- Every dollar counts
- TROtt subsidizes every hour of service by $23.56.
- Your donation of $25 makes it possible for us to keep our fees affordable for one lesson
- Your donation of $500 enables a person with special needs to join an 8 week unmounted program for free.
Monthly Donation
- Monthly donations are an important part of our sustainability
- Your monthly donation enables us to improve our programs through staff and volunteer training, new tack or program supplies and consultations with health experts about best practices in our activities
Adopt A Horse
- By “Adopting A Horse” for $2,500 for one year, you are covering the care costs of one of our wonderful horses
- This has the effect of covering the subsidy for 100 hours of therapeutic riding or other equine assisted service.
- For information email exec_dir@ottawatherapeuticriding.ca
In-Kind Wish List
- In-kind donations to meet specific needs enhance our programs and increase efficiencies.
- Our current Wish List:
- 2 good quality computers
- a good quality used ATV
- materials or labour for a “Sensory Station” for neurodiverse participants.
- a wheelchair accessible cart for our mini horses.
Tribute Donation
- You can donate in honour of someone important to you, for example as a memorial donation or to mark another important occasion.
