Your gift of $22 dollars can save a veteran's life

Every day, brave men and women who once protected this country now fight a silent battle alone.


At H.O.O.V.E.S., their story does not end in the dark.


Here they are met with compassion, connection, and the healing power of horses.

Your $22 creates a lifeline at the exact moment it is needed most.

Most Veterans Who Have Lost Their Battle

Told No One They Are Struggling

Their darkness was invisible long before it became unbearable.


But the horses see what the eyes and the voice hide.
They respond to the truth under the surface.


That is why HOOVES saves lives.

Your gift of $22 supports more than just a program.


It gives someone the one moment they cannot give themselves


A moment to feel safe. A moment to be seen. A moment to choose life again

Hope becomes possible because of you...

Here is what your $22 will provide for a veteran
