Ways to Support Work to Ride

Why Is Your Support
Important?

Work to Ride is the only program of its kind in the United States. The majority of equine programs charge a fee for service, are short-term, and only engage youth and horse interaction at a very basic level. WTR youth are fully exposed and participate in the whole horse experience, which is thought to only be available to people of means. The WTR program is free to low-income under-resourced youth in Philadelphia. All manners of support benefit the WTR program, whether it’s stomping divots at the Philadelphia Polo Classic, contributing to our building fund, or supporting a child at summer camp will all help positively impact the lives of Philadelphia urban youth.

Capital Campaign

In 2019 Work to Ride leadership embarked on a Capital Campaign to expand and improve Work to Ride facilities and resources to extend the reach of program services to additional youth and the community at large. Over these past few years, the Work to Ride Leaders have dedicated themselves to raising over $15 million to enhance and broaden the scope of Work to Ride facilities and resources.  Thanks to your incredible support, we completed Phase One fundraising, raising $13 million for the McCausland Arena. The indoor riding facility is on track for completion by April 2025, providing a vital space for our kids and horses.

Now, we’re moving into Phase Two: Restoring the Barn at Chamounix.
