2023 Victory Gallop

Gather with Thorncroft on June 17, 2023 as we celebrate our 38th year of the Victory Gallop! Chairs Andrew and Sandy Goodman welcome our community to join together for a lively, black-tie evening in the spirit of friendship and in the mission of inclusion.

2023 offers an exquisite venue for our seated dinner, dancing, and silent auction, welcoming our guests to The Gold Ballroom at the internationally renowned HOTEL DU PONT. Once the headquarters for the DuPont Company, the hotel is a landmark example of Italian Renaissance architecture. Rich in history and tradition, guests will find themselves taken back to the Gilded Age, an era of elegance and style.

The Impact of Your Support

The 38th Annual Victory Gallop will support the lifechanging mission of Thorncroft where the mental, social, and physical well-being of each individual thrives and where the light of everyone is welcomed.

In addition, we will be raising support during the event for The Patrick Fund and the purchase of additional members of our herd. 

The Patrick Fund

Founded in 2023, the Patrick Horse Fund seeks to raise support for the growth of our herd. Named in honor of Thorncroft's Patrick, born on the Farm on November 7, 1995, spending his 27 years in service to his riders.

Thorncroft's deep impact on our community would not be possible without equine partners like Patrick.

Our Goal

On June 17, 2023 at the event, we are requesting your support for the growth of our herd. Your generosity will create a sustainable future for our Farm and a lasting impact on our community. Please help us reach our goal of $25,000 and join us in building the future for life changing programming at Thorncroft.

Support The Patrick Fund 

We invite you to make a gift in a way that best suits you. Your generosity may also be shared in the form of a check or card as well as via gifts of stock, Donor Advised Fund/Family Foundation Grants and other charitable means.

Please contact Thorncroft's Head of Philanthropy Mikaela Potrako at 610-644-1963 to discuss your gift and the impact you wish to have on the Farm.
