a month. A donation of $25.00 will cover expenses for 1 session for a Veteran. 100% of all donations to Tranquil Valley
are used to maintain the Sanctuary for rescued horses and Healing Hearts. We operate with an all volunteer staff.

Just a little note as to where our donations go.... The costs associated with this program are sometimes a little amazing to the person that has never owned a horse.
The upkeep of one horse can be surprising. However the work that they do to help people to overcome fears, learn to
love again, find compassion, feel accepted, and feel true unconditional love are worth every penny. Our four legged
therapists need help with Medical expenses, ie Veterinarians, new shoes, manicures(trimming hooves), blankets for warmth,
Good quality food, and well fitted clothing(ie saddles, bridles, halters) To give an example of these costs: One visit from the Vet to the farm is $100.00 just to come, then the cost for treatment is added to that. When you work with rescued horses, they often need special medical care, medications, treatments, monitoring as they
put weight back on, dentistry work, supplimental vitamins, you get the idea... Individual support of Tranquil Valley through sponsorship provides the foundation upon
which we operate. It is your steadfast assistance that makes us so effective in saving the lives of endangered horses while
providing support to individuals with a range of physical, emotional, cognitive, and social special needs as well as our combat
veterans that are so deserving of our services.
As little as $100 will feed our equine volunteers
for a whole month. Funding for the Tranquil
Valley Sanctuary provides care for 25 rescued horses. The horses that are rescued have their own special needs. We give
them the best care possible. Basic Care - minimum costs to keep a horse: - hoof trim - $40/every six weeks
- deworm - $8/every six
weeks
- vaccinations - Spring & Fall $150/ea.
- food -(hay $100/mo., grain $50/mo. carrots $10/mo.)
We
seek no payment from those that are in need of our services. Because this program is completely run on the goodwill
of those that assist we are always in need of volunteers and donations.
We
are currently seeking volunteers to assist with the following: - cleaning public
areas & paddocks
- grooming horses
- assistants to help with group programs & classes
By becoming a volunteer, you receive the satisfaction of helping to provide these rescued horses with a safe and
secure environment. Please help, become a volunteer today. Call us at 801-540-2724.. This
may seem like alot, but when you think about the fact that a good psychiatrist charges at least $75.00 an hour, is it really?
