Ways to Contribute
We GREATLY Appreciate Your Support!!!!
The Washington State Horse Park is a 501(c)(3) non-profit charitable organization, NOT a government entity. We know our name makes this confusing for many. We want to make sure you understand that every donation, and every sponsorship, big or small, is important and directly affects the growth and sustainability of the Horse Park.
We welcome the support of individuals, businesses, clubs, groups and organizations that make up Washington’s horse community. There are many improvements and amenities that are needed to sustain and improve the operating efficiency of the Park and to satisfy the needs of our users.
Donation of money, time and materials are critical to operate the Horse Park. We hope we can count on you, your business & the horse organizations you take part in to support the Horse Park, YOUR HORSE PARK!

Sponsorship vs. Donations
- Sponsorship is intended to mutually benefit the sponsor and the Park. A sponsorship is a great way to advertise your brand; for your cash gift, you will receive publicity such as advertising throughout the Park, helping increase Park user's awareness of your company.
- Donations support the Park without any commercial objective; donors are usually individuals, but companies may also be donors. (See our current donors here.)
- Either, or both, might be the right answer for your unique situation. The choice is yours!

Volunteer
The Park has a need for volunteers year-round. We rely on volunteers to help keep operating costs low. We have organized work parties, as well as utilizing individual and organizations (clubs, businesses, sports teams, church groups, school clubs, etc.) to help throughout the year.
- Barns, arenas, grounds and trails need to be prepped for opening, cleaned throughout the season and closed up for winter.
- During events there is always a need for additional hands to help before, during and after.
- Be part of the GALA planning committee. This is the Park's main fundraising event for the year.
- Skilled Volunteers. Truck drivers, construction and heavy equipment operators. There are also many other positions that take special skills: data entry, photography, marketing, social media, etc. Do you have a skill you think would benefit the Park?!
