Become a Longears Patron!

We have been repeatedly asked about how one becomes a member in our organization. Until now, we haven't really had a program for that. Of course, if you are a regular volunteer, whether as a ranch hand, administrative assistant or board member, you are a "member" in a very direct, hands-on sense, and there will be certain functions and gatherings or meetings in which you are directly involved. But if you do not have the time to volunteer, can you still be a "member" of our organization and stay involved on a regular basis?
Yes, you can! Here's how you can become a Longears Patron, a member of our community:
Join our distinguished community of monthly donors that make our work possible 365 days a year.
Some donkeys will live at the Safehouse forever—due to age, trauma, or chronic medical needs. Your monthly sponsorship gives them steady, loving care for the rest of their lives.
Become a Supporter, Friend, Guardian, Champion or Hero to help provide hay, vet visits, hoof trims, and enrichment—everything a donkey, mule or hinny needs to feel safe, healthy, and loved.
CHOOSE YOUR PATRON LEVEL
Every Sanctuary Donkey Patron helps provide the essential, ongoing care our permanent residents depend on. From daily feedings to hoof trims, your monthly gift makes a direct impact on a donkey’s life at The Longears Safehouse.
REGULAR SUPPORTER - LESS THAN $50/MONTH
This is a thoughtful way to contribute to our monthly expenses, be it by adding a bale of hay or some sedative for farrier visits, a couple of bags of training treats or a bag of senior feed. Every little bit helps, and it helps even more if it can be counted on EVERY MONTH.
