Financial Information - 
*NOTE: Our scholarships are not determined by financial position or household income or other traditional "sliding scale" methods.
When requesting household financial information, please accurately provide this information, even if you are a foster parent or otherwise think this does not apply to you.  
This information is used only to provide lower costs in the future  - by showing scholarships are sought by families of various financial positions who are trying to access services for students that could not otherwise have access.  
We submit anonymous financial data to support the fight for: 
1. health insurance companies in Kentucky to cover equine assisted learning & therapy (as they do in other states). 
2. KY foster care system to cover a portion of costs, so the burden is not on foster parents (we understand the monthly stipend is usually insufficient). 
3. KY public schools to assist more families with alternative services & therapies.

Most scholarships require participants and custodians/caregivers to “give back” through completing volunteer hours with Annie’s Answer.  We believe this teaches our students the value of hard work & giving back, and allows them to fully understand & appreciate the Annie’s Answer process to building strong character & a strong community.  Volunteering tasks are fun, simple, and age/ability appropriate. Hours can be completed on various volunteer days or at other times arranged with Annie’s Answer.

Please type your name to indicate custodian(s) and your student agree to participate in volunteer hours. ­­­­­­­­­

Please also list any special skills or limitations to be considered for volunteer hours.
