Why Supporting Pony 4 Precious Charity is the ONLY way to go.

Supporting Pony 4 Precious Inc. through sponsorship, adoption, or donation can alleviate the responsibilities and costs associated with pony ownership. Owning a pony requires dedication, hard work, and resources – from daily care to seasonal challenges like winter weather. As domesticated animals, ponies need proper care and a nurturing environment to thrive. This includes 24/7 attention, regular hoof trimming, and a supply of fresh Alfalfa hay for 7 days. You may also need to provide supplements, salt licks, deworming medication, and semi-annual injections. With your donation, you can ensure these animals receive the care they need and deserve. Join us in supporting ponies in need by donating to our charity today.

Daily Care

Everyday your pony needs to be fed hay in the morning and at night. Ponies should be let out into an open space such as a fenced arena or pasture to roam, run and play. Water troths need to be checked for clean fresh water daily. In addition to everyone’s favorite chore of mucking stalls. Stalls need to be clean to keep flys and bugs away from your pony. So before you buy a pony ask yourself, do you have the space and time to dedicate to your equine friend?

box2-1

Food And Other Needs

Every 6-8 weeks, all horses, including ponies, need their hoofs to be trimmed which will cost around $50 to $125. Such as any animal, ponies need to eat! Food for a pony can cost between $25-$50 a week. Some ponies even need supplments to support their joints, hoofs, etc… These supplements can range from $30-$50 a month! Don’t forget ponies also have to get their shots and other basic grooming supplies such as shampoo, fly spray, etc…

Do You Own Land?

Owning a pony is awesome for a person who has land, i.e. ranch or a few acres. The property will need to have horse stalls and a fenced pasture and/or arena for your pony to get the adequate amount of exercise. Ponies require a specific environment to properly thrive in. If you don’t have land, most areas offer horse boarding stables that can range from $350-$900 a month, depending on the type of boarding facility and your location.

In 2023, our volunteer charity allocated 100% of our operating expenses to support programs for horses, scholarships, and children and teen programs.
  • A total of 2,500 free books were generously donated to children.
  • We award multiple scholarships annually.

By sponsoring our “Just Imagine” program, you have the power to transform the future of children.

Your generous donation not only supports educational programs and provides free books for children, but also contributes to Winston’s wellness.

Join us in making a difference today! Your donation can help change lives and support important causes. Every contribution, no matter how small, can make a big impact.

Pony 4 Precious is the way to go! The expression on my son’s face when I gave him the book A Day in the Life of Cowboy Mike and Winston and told him I bought him a pony was the best thing we have shared together in a long time!
