Whether it’s a donation to one of HETRA’s many specialized programs or supporting the HETRA Equine Partners, Friends of HETRA are a vital part of their mission. A monthly donation from a Friend of HETRA helps to build a sustainable community of individuals willing and able to keep HETRA affordable to all of our participants.
