Meet Our Herd

During the Hooves & Gratitude: Open House with the Herd event, you will learn how you can help support their care and well-being through a variety of sponsorship options. Sponsor your favorite horse, goat, or bunny for the entire 2026 calendar year, six months, or one season. Therapy animal sponsorships make a unique gift for someone special on your holiday shopping list. If you would like to discuss sponsorship opportunities before this event, including naming one of our goats, please email philanthropy@eastersealsma.org.

We hope to see you on November 29! Join us for an hour or the entire afternoon to mingle with your favorite animals. Bring your family and friends!
