Support Where the Hooves Go
Support Where the Hooves Go (SWTHG) is an annual grant-making program of the New Hampshire Horse Council (NHHC) dedicated to raising and disbursing funds to recreational organizations, federal or state park agencies, and conservation organizations to support trail improvements and maintenance and the acquisition of trails and trail heads for equine use.
NHHC is always looking for appropriate SWTHG grant recipients from around the state. If you know of an organization, agency, or project in your area, please email Trails Committee Chair Debbie Briscoe (nhhctrails@aol.com). Recipient qualifications and selection procedure are available upon request.
Please consider making a donation today! Please note that NHHC is a 501(c)5 non-profit, and donations are not tax-deductible.
