The Big Purple Barn, Inc
A Horse and Small Farm Animal Sanctuary
Sponsor a Resident!
Welcome to the herd! We have operated in our Bowie, Maryland location since 2001. Since then, we have provided top quality care to all of the animals in residence here. As an animal SANCTUARY, we are the final and forever home of the animals that come into our care.
We receive no state, federal or county funding. We are a 501C3 non profit and we rely on the generosity of our community, donations and some program generated income. We strive not only to be a top quality licensed and accredited sanctuary, but to also be a resource for our community by providing education and access! YOU CAN HELP! Please join us as a care partner and donate each month towards the care of our sanctuary residents. You can meet the herd by clicking below or you can become a general sponsor! We are also launching our $20 for 20 years campaign and would love your support! Please contact us via email is you need assistance in selecting the right program for you! Sponsors get benefits here beyond the satisfaction of contributing to a great cause.
