Only those organizations that have received the EQUUS Foundation Guardian designation are eligible to apply for an equine in their care that provides Equine Assisted Services to veterans or the family members of veterans.

Selections will be made by a committee of EQUUS Foundation. Grant Recipients will receive a $500 grant to be used for the nominated equine and other equines that participate in Equine Assisted Services programs for veterans or family members of veterans. Grants totalling $5000.00 will be awarded in 2025.

To apply, the EQUUS Foundation Guardian will need to log into its organization profile, select "VETERAN SERVICES GRANTS", and complete the online application. Applicants must address how the funds will be used, and within six months of receipt of funds, grantees must report on the use of the funds, including bills for services rendered.
