What we aim to solve

SOURCE: Self-reported by organization

Participation in Equestrian sport is often seen as exclusive due to the costs of owning and maintaining a horse and riding equipment. IEA removes this barrier with our unique draw-based competition format, allowing students to compete without owning a horse or riding equipment, providing greater affordability and access to the sport. The Benevolent Fund aims to provide equitable access to equestrian sports through a Financial Assistance Program for young riders in grades 4-12 who need additional funding support to enable them to take lessons and compete in the IEA. Thereby addressing the need for inclusion and equal opportunity in the equestrian community.
