Donate
Your support helps Grounded with Nature remain a safe, steady place for animals and the people who care about them.
As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit animal sanctuary and retreat space, donations support both the daily needs of the animals and the long-term care of the land and facilities that make this work possible.
How Your Donation Helps
Every contribution directly supports:
- Daily animal care, feed, bedding, and enrichment
- Veterinary and farrier services
- Facility maintenance and safety improvements
- Foster and overflow support for animals in transition
- Long-term projects, including a new barn, a future guest cabin, and an outdoor pavilion
Your gift helps us care well, plan responsibly, and grow thoughtfully—always with animal welfare first.
Become a Guardian
The Guardian Program provides steady, ongoing support for the animals who call Grounded with Nature home. Monthly giving allows us to plan responsibly, respond to animal needs as they arise, and ensure consistent, high-quality care.
Providing basic care for just one horse can cost $2,000–$5,000 per year, including feed, farrier services, veterinary care, and safe shelter. Guardian support helps make that care possible.
No matter the level you choose, 100% of Guardian donations go directly to animal care.

Why Monthly Giving Matters
Monthly support allows Grounded with Nature to remain stable, responsive, and animal-first. It reduces emergency fundraising, supports thoughtful growth, and ensures animals are never rushed, overlooked, or treated as temporary.
