Gift choices start at only $25 which could, for example, provide a blanket to a hard-working horse in the mountains in winter, up to $5,000 which could help to stock one of our free veterinary hospitals in a developing country.

The funds raised by the Brooke USA Shop support all of Brooke's equine welfare programs across Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Central America by making it possible for our veterinarians to provide free treatment for overworked, dehydrated, injured, sick, lame and malnourished animals. I

t also makes it possible for Brooke to provide free training for owners, service providers, and entire villages in more humane methods of using their animals.

Brooke USA Shop virtual gifts are a great option for upcoming holiday gift-giving and end-of-year donations, but are also a convenient year-round way to support our programs. Use them to honor or remember beloved people and pets, to acknowledge accomplishments of your clients and co-workers, and to celebrate holidays, weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, other special occasions, and "just because."

Whether you purchase Brooke USA Shop virtual gifts as an easy way to make donations or on behalf of yourself or as a gift for someone else, it's a win-win-win: 1) You get a year-end tax-deduction and a great deal of satisfaction, 2) the recipient will know that you thought of them when choosing this gift, and 3) working animals and their owners will benefit!

(When purchasing on behalf of someone else, just check the appropriate box on the donation page and we'll send cards for you to pass along to the recipients.)
