Equellness Center Scholarship Program

At The Equellness Center, we believe finances should never stand in the way of growth, healing, and connection. Every child, teen, and adult deserves the opportunity to experience the life changing power of working with horses in a safe and supportive community. Thanks to the generosity of our donors and community partners, scholarship funds are available for participants who demonstrate financial need.

Scholarships cover a portion of program costs and are awarded based on available funding and a thoughtful review of each request. Funds are limited and vary throughout the year. Receiving a scholarship in the past, or applying for one, does not guarantee future awards. We encourage families to contribute at a level that feels manageable, allowing financial support to extend to more participants. 

Scholarship decisions are made without regard to age, sex, race, color, religion, national origin, disability (our programs are geared toward able bodied participants), sexual orientation, marital status, or veteran status. Rooted in connection, belonging, and opportunity, we remain committed to ensuring financial hardship does not prevent participation in the meaningful work that happens here.

Scholarship Request Process

If you require scholarship assistance, please click the button to submit an application. Each request is reviewed individually and confidentially.

If a scholarship is approved, you will receive an email confirmation with a coupon code to use during registration. The approved percentage will be applied to your program tuition at checkout.

Scholarships are not awarded on a first come, first served basis. For each program, we open a defined application window and review all requests together after the deadline. This allows us to consider each family’s circumstances thoughtfully rather than making decisions based on who was able to apply first.

When reviewing applications, we look at demonstrated financial need, the potential impact of the program for the participant, and the scholarship funds available at that time. If resources are limited, priority may be given to families experiencing significant hardship or unexpected challenges.

Our intention is to steward scholarship funds with care and fairness, while honoring the dignity of every family. This process helps ensure access is guided by need and impact, not speed or access to information.

Scholarship Commitment

Because scholarship funds are limited, families receiving support agree to:

  • Attend the full program or all scheduled dates
  • Pay the agreed family portion by the stated deadline
  • Complete all required registration forms prior to the program start
  • Communicate promptly regarding attendance concerns or emergencies

The Equellness Center reserves the right to reassign scholarship funds if participation commitments are not met.
