DONATIONS

WHY DONATE TO WSHJA?

For over 70 years, the Washington State Hunter Jumper Association has been more than just horse shows—we've been building dreams, fostering community, and creating opportunities that last a lifetime. As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, we rely on the generosity of friends like you who believe in the transformative power of horses and the importance of accessible equestrian education.

 

Your donation directly changes lives. Every contribution helps fund scholarships for deserving junior and adult riders who dream of competing but need financial support to make it happen. You're also helping us bring world-class educational opportunities to our community through subsidized clinics and training symposia, ensuring that excellent horsemanship education is available to riders at all levels throughout the Pacific Northwest.

 

When you donate to WSHJA, you're investing in character development, confidence building, and the unique life lessons that only come from the partnership between horse and rider. You're supporting a sport where dedication, respect, and sportsmanship are just as important as ribbons and trophies.

 

HOW YOUR DONATION HELPS

Your generous donation supports:

• Scholarships that open doors for junior and adult riders who need financial assistance to pursue their equestrian goals.
