ESC to Distribute Over $10K in Grants & Sponsorships in 2022

Equine Sports Council is excited to share news of our growth in 2022 and announce over $10,000 in Sponsorship & Grant Payouts.

Congratulations to the Illinois American Saddlebred Pleasure Horse Association – they will receive over $1,600 in Sponsorship Grant Funds generated from 25% of the fees that their show series collected. These funds will be used to sponsor classes, awards or hospitality events at the 2023 IASPHA shows.

ESC continues to grow our Network and would like to welcome several new shows this year, including Wisconsin Futurity, Oshkosh Charity, ASAW Summerfun, and Dixie Cup. The ESC Network has been a proud partner with multiple breed shows, and our Spring roster is proud to once again include high quality events such as the FASH Spring Show and Southern Saddlebred Spring Fling. Shows in the ESC Network may also qualify for breed National and World Championships, including the Monarch National Championship, also governed by ESC. Shows that participated in our network in 2022 will receive a total of $8,500 in grant paybacks to support their 2023 events.

Recognizing the importance of strong Academy Programs, ESC will sponsor the adoption and transportation fees (up to $1,250ea) of two lesson horses for two growing lesson programs located in underserved or developing areas. These horses will be sourced from equine rescue organizations in our show horse industry. Visit our website to put in a Lesson Horse Application by December 10th at _____.
