Donations in Lieu of Flowers or Occasion Gifts
Donations in lieu of flowers or gifts can be made for celebrations, holidays or in memoriams. TCA will notify the recipient or the recipient’s family that a donation has been made in their honor.
Horsemen’s Pledge
Take the horsemen’s pledge to “share the winner’s circle” with Thoroughbreds and hard-working backstretch employees by pledging a per start fee or a percentage of your racing stable’s or partnership’s earnings. The horsemen’s bookkeeper at each track will deduct your pledge proceeds and remit them to TCA. You can participate for an entire year, at one track, or for even one meet. To participate complete the pledge form here and email it to Lesley Greathouse Kibler via lkibler@tca.org or mail it to the address on the form.
