Ways to Give

In today’s world, we have to make our money stretch.  There are many ways to earn money for Happy Trails in your day-to-day living. Browse the many ways to give to the rescued animals at Happy Trails and earn money to help support at-risk and in-transition farm animals and horses.
Acme Community Cashback Program

*Receipts accepted beginning August 1, 2024. Deadline for submission is February 15, 2025.

  1. Simply save your receipts.  Through the Acme Community Cash Back Program, you can turn your grocery shopping experience into cold hard cash for Happy Trails and the rescued animals. This program allows our organization to earn 5% of qualifying purchases by submitting the receipts of our supporters.
    NOTE: The 5% cashback is calculated on ACME Fresh Market store brands. Only receipts with a value amount next to the “community cash back” notation will qualify.
  2. Send your receipts to Happy Trails.  Mail your receipts to Happy Trails at 5623 New Milford Rd Ravenna, OH  44266
Aluminum Can Recycle
  1. Save your aluminum cans. Collect your cans and store them up in durable trash bags. Pet food cans as well as beverage cans can be recycled. When in doubt, use a magnet to test for aluminum. A magnet will not stick to aluminum but will stick to steel or other metals.
  2. Drop off at Happy Trails.  Bring your bags to the Happy Trails Sanctuary office and place them beside the office building to the left in the receptacles provided. If you need help, please ask in the office! If the receptacles are full, place your bags in the area beside them.
  3. Make money!  Happy Trails periodically takes the aluminum cans donated to B & B Recycling where your donated cans are turned into money that directly benefits the farm animals rescued by Happy Trails and you.
Monthly Animal Sponsorship
  1. Choose your favorite animal.  Browse our many farm animals and horses in varying stages of recovery and those available for adoption.
  2. Fill out our Animal Sponsorship form.  Print out and complete our sponsorship form and mail to:  5623 New Milford Rd, Ravenna, OH 44266.  You can also start your monthly sponsorship payments by visiting our Animal Sponsorship page.
  3. Enjoy your monthly sponsorship and benefits.  Receive an introductory sponsorship packet, periodic updates and invitations to our ‘Sponsor Days’ where you can visit with your sponsored animal in person.
Stall Sponsorship
  1. Read More.  A horse stall sponsorship is a unique program designed to provide sponsorship for a recovery stall at Happy Trails.  Each horse arriving at the sanctuary needs special attention for their rehabilitation.  Read the details.
  2. Sponsor a Stall!  Decide whether your sponsorship will span a year at $125 a month or pay one payment of $1500 for the year. Visit our Donations page and mark your donation for a stall sponsorship.
  3. Decide what your plaque will say.  With each annual sponsorship of a recovery stall a plaque is hung in honor of your donation.  It’s a great way to mark your support for the animals of Happy Trails or a great gift in honor or memory of a loved one.

Workplace Giving

Workplace giving is a fantastic way to double or triple your donation, depending on your company’s policy. A gift from you and your workplace will go directly to support Happy Trail’s mission to rescue, rehabilitate, and provide an adoption program for abused, abandoned, and neglected farm animals throughout Ohio.

We work to educate on how to create a kinder world for all beings. To support Happy Trails within your workplace, first consult your human resources department to determine Happy Trails eligibility for your workplace giving program. Discuss with human resources or Happy Trails the best option for donating. You can also contact Happy Trails directly and we will reach out on your behalf to your company’s human resources department to determine if Happy Trails is currently included in your workplace giving program.
