KBF is Heading to Memphis

WTHJA Memphis Charity Horse Show Joins Kevin Babington Foundation to Host Babington Benefit

Your Class. Their Future.

Through the Babington Benefit Class initiative, horse shows dedicate a single class—or a portion of entry fees—to provide critical financial assistance to injured riders.

With the message “Your Class. Their Future.”, the initiative reinforces how one class can directly impact the life of an athlete while strengthening the future of show jumping.

Each class hosted is more than competition—it is a commitment to the riders who make this sport what it is.

Supporting Riders. Strengthening Our Sport. Building Community.

Babington Benefit Classes are built on the core values that define the equestrian community:

Support Riders. Change Lives.
Provide financial assistance to show jumping athletes facing spinal cord injuries.

Strengthen Our Sport.
Promote safety initiatives, including awareness and use of protective equipment.

Build a Stronger Community.
Unite the sport around compassion, resilience, and support for one another.

Every Class Makes a Difference. Every Round Counts.

The WTHJA Memphis Charity Horse Show’s commitment to hosting a Babington Benefit Class reflects the very best of the sport—coming together to create real impact.

As more shows continue to join the initiative, the collective effort of the equestrian community is helping to provide meaningful support for riders facing life-changing injuries while building a safer and more unified future for the sport.

Horse show organizers, trainers, and riders are encouraged to take part—because every class truly makes a difference.
