And the countless individuals who donate to our Big Round Up jars, pass along their Canadian Tire dollars, sell tickets and cookbooks for us at their places of business, donate the proceeds from their empty bottle returns, donate Mitchell Brothers Advantage and Save On More points, and the incalculable number of hours spent volunteering to help the children and adults in the program, and the continuous assistance with fundraisers…the list goes on…

There are no words to describe how grateful we are for the difference you make in the lives of the people we serve.

THANK YOU !!!

*our apologies if we’ve missed anyone – we are constantly working to update our list

And a huge, warm, fuzzy thanks to all of our volunteers, members, board members, horses, and staff for all that they do for us! The wonderful team of people we have make this a rewarding place to work!

A special note for parents...

how you can help

We are quickly selling out of our t-shirts and hats, so get yours before they’re all gone! New hats, vests, sweat pants and embroidered t- shirts coming soon!

other cool ideas!

Take your bottles to the Sunset Coast Bottle Recycling Depot and ask them to put the proceeds towards Powell River Therapeutic Riding.
Ask Mitchell Brothers, Safeway, Save On Foods and Quality Foods how you can donate points or air miles to Therapeutic Riding.
Bring your loose change into us to roll up and take to the bank.
Donate $10 or more and we will issue a tax receipt for you to use on your tax return.
Manure sales continue, bagged or by the truckload, get your properly composted manure that you can put directly on your lawns, gardens, planters, etc.
Donate your Canadian Tire money to us – it’s used to purchase items for building maintenance, laundry, kitchen & bathroom supplies, etc
Download our snazzy new brochure and use the form to donate or to volunteer. Click here.

an important message to our supporters

The Powell River Therapeutic Riding Association places a high value on our relationship with you, our donors. Without your support we would not be able to achieve our mission to provide therapeutic rehabilitation to individuals with disabilities through the use of the horse. We thank you for your commitment to us.

We believe that transparency and accountability are essential to our success. With this in mind, we have recently joined Imagine Canada’s Ethical Code Program.

The Ethical Fundraising and Financial Accountability Code lays out a set of standards for charitable organizations to manage and report their financial affairs responsibly. By adhering to these standards, we are complying with generally accepted practices for soliciting and managing donor dollars. This is important because you, our supporters, are entitled to transparency and the greatest impact possible for your investment in us.

If you have any questions about our adherence to the Ethical Code, please feel free to contact Joyce Lennox to request a copy of our financial statements. You can also download the Ethical Code itself by going to www.imaginecanada.ca
