You've been working out for a while in a great gym-staring out the windows at the suuny street or another building. What if you could build on that fitness and help our special needs riders at the same time. Maybe you just wish you had an opportunity to get some excercise, have fun and help out at the same time?
Horses with Heart has been providing Equine Assisted Activities and Therapies (EAAT) in the Quad-cities of Arizona for over 24 years. The need for this type of activity utilizing the power of the horse to heal has escalated greatly. Our special needs riders, seniors and veterans need your help. We have added extra days, now running 6 a week to meet the needs of the community and just don't have enough people-power to make the magic happen.
We have a dedicated trained cadre of amazing men and women who work with us, some for over 15 years of our 21 year history and we need to add to the team New Volunteer Training starts soon!
Bring a friend and make a few new ones, enjoy the cool breeze, great team, wonderful riders and ever so cool horses.
We are also seeking one or two working professionals in the Quad Cities who have an interest in serving with our dedicated Board of Directors. These openings are being made available by retirement or roll-off of current Board members. There is a process in place for Board Development and it starts here! Looking for a legal and/or financial team member as well as a member with deep roots in the service organization community. HwH is currently accepting letters of interest.
