Overview
Mission
In 2017, Maplewood Stables celebrated its 40th anniversary, and in reflecting on our achievements in the competition, training and breeding arenas, Ive realized that none of this would be possible without the knowledge Ive gleaned over the decades. As a lifelong student of the horse, my passion is to inspire others to follow that same path. Therefore, in 2018 we launched Goodtoknow Horses, a 501(c)3 non-profit corporation, in order to expandour educational opportunities to those who might not otherwise be able to afford to continue their educations. Maplewood is a 165-acre property in Reno, Nevada, that serves an educational hub to not onlyeducate riders and trainers, but also all horse peopleyoung and old who wish to become better horsemen, ultimately for the benefit of the horse. In addition to our successful Hunter/Jumper show barn, Maplewood includes a sport horse breeding operation, a young horse training center, a thriving lesson program, riding camps for children and adults
What it reported doing in 2024

Operating model
- Revenue model
- Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
