Organizations We Support
Our primary areas of giving include ANIMAL WELFARE and EQUINE-ASSISTED THERAPY ORGANIZATIONS and CHILDREN'S CHARITIES. We're able to make a difference thanks in large part to the support of our Breyer fans. Thank you for making what we do possible!
Breyer supports the following fine organizations whose work we admire. These organizations are at the forefront in each of their respective areas, and we are proud to be able to help them in the efforts. Your continued support through donations and contributions to the BreyerFest Raffles, Silent Auction and Live Auction have helped Breyer contribute more then $1.5 million to various non-profit organizations since BreyerFest was founded in 1990. In 2016, the following organizations were awarded donations from Breyer:
