Endowments

The Rider Scholarship Endowment was created to provide financial assistance to families and participants who participate in our mounted programming — Hippotherapy and Therapeutic Riding. Annual endowment distributions in the form of scholarships will be determined through an application process so that our equine assisted services may be accessible by all. 

The Dr. Jerry H. Rudnick Herd Stewardship Endowment has been created in memory of the longtime EATSF veterinarian. For more than 25 years, Dr. Jerry H. Rudnick provided veterinary services and care to our herd, as well as counsel to our human team members to ensure that our horses can work to the best of their abilities. Dr. Rudnick cared for all our horses as if they were his own. He understood how important they were to our mission…and to our participants. 

The Fund will ensure that the horses who provide such a valuable service to the community receive the best care we can provide. Annual endowment distributions will be used for all costs related to the care, feeding, and continued stewardship of our horse herd. 

Stanley and Carol Zeitchick believed wholeheartedly in the power of horses.  Since joining the organization over 30 years ago, the Zeitchick family has been instrumental in the development of our programs and campus. This fund, upon reaching maturity, will provide financial assistance for children with special needs who would otherwise be unable to afford equine assisted services.
