Through a memorial or honorarium, you can recognize a special person or horse who has helped you realize a dream or inspired you to succeed. A memorial/honorary gift to the American Quarter Horse Foundation honors your loved one and provides for the future of our horses. Your gift supports the education of our youth, research for equine afflictions, grants for equine assisted activities/therapies and the Hall of Fame & Museum.
