Saddle Up Scholars is a nonprofit organization solely dependent on private and public funding for all its operational costs. Saddle Up Scholars is currently serving nearly 40 students from 4 separate outreach riding programs. We believe that our students should have access to quality tutors equivalent to those of their peers in private, independent schools, and therefore we pay a premium for those services. We do not rely on the benevolence of volunteers to provide tutoring, and we respect the time and expertise of our educational professionals with payment for their sessions. Educators are an invaluable resource, and much of our budget goes toward providing quality instruction. These costs associated with running our program are worth the benefits, as our students are excelling in their studies and gaining access to educational opportunities that will empower them in the future. Please help us in funding our students throughout the year.
