PATH Intl. advances standards, education, certification and accreditation for safe, effective equine-assisted services and supports members and centers that deliver therapeutic horsemanship and related programs.
Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship Intl. funds the infrastructure of equine-assisted services rather than direct individual aid. Its recent grants support centers, professionals, and programs that deliver therapeutic horsemanship, with awards reaching organizations such as Stable Strides in Elbert, Colorado and Shining Hope Farms in Mount Holly, North Carolina. The largest recent grant in the file is $22,625, and the 2024 list shows support for therapeutic riding, equine-assisted therapy, and horsemanship centers across multiple states. The foundation’s stated mission centers on standards, education, certification, and accreditation for safe, effective equine-assisted services. That emphasis appears in the types of grantees it backs: member organizations providing services, practitioners, and sector stakeholders involved in training, certification, and program administration. Recent awards also extend to centers serving specialized communities, including Hope for Heroes Horsemanship Center in Yelm, Washington and Dream Catchers at the Cori Sikich in Williamsburg, Virginia. Across the recent grant list, the pattern is consistent: modest awards to operating organizations that are part of the field’s service delivery and professional support system.
A core theme is center support. The foundation gave $22,625 to Stable Strides in Elbert, Colorado and $20,495 to Shining Hope Farms in Mount Holly, North Carolina, both of which fit its focus on equine-assisted services and program capacity building. It also supports therapeutic riding and horsemanship programs. Recent awards include $18,750 to Bravehearts Therapeutic Riding Center in Harvard, Illinois and $7,225 to Prancing Horse Center in Southern Pines, North Carolina, showing attention to local programs that deliver services directly. Training, certification, and sector professionalization are part of the picture as well. The organization’s own program description highlights grants and scholarships for PATH Intl. centers, professionals, and programs, aligning with its broader emphasis on continuing education, credentialing, and standards development.

Typical awards are small to mid-sized: the 25th percentile is $6,678, the median is $9,300, and the 75th percentile is $10,965. The recent list suggests a steady spread around that center, with only a few grants above $20,000. Giving appears recurring rather than one-off in the sense that the foundation funds the same field each year through a named grants-and-scholarships program, though the provided list only shows 2024 awards. It funds organizations, not individuals, and it does not make program-related investments. The grants page describes an unsolicited-application approach as false, indicating funding is not open to general unsolicited requests.
The giving is national, and every recent grant in the file went to a U.S. recipient. Colorado appears in the recipient list multiple times, including Elbert, Loveland, and Hampton, and the foundation gives most often in Georgia by grant count, even though that is not its headquarters state. Other repeated recipient locations include Texas, North Carolina, and Florida, reflecting a broad spread across the country rather than a single-region pattern.
