Description
Greystone Manor Therapeutic Riding Center is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that provides quality equine programs for children and adults with special needs. Our mission is to enhance the lives of individuals with special needs through equine assisted activities. This is done in a fun and non-judgmental setting where riders enjoy friendships, improve self-esteem, develop physical strength, and increase socialization.
We are in need of all types of volunteers, not just operational volunteers or those who have experience with horses! People with different backgrounds and expertise, from marketing to finance to landscaping or construction, are just as valuable to our operation as those who are directly involved with our horses and students!
We can only achieve our mission with the help of many dedicated volunteers who give their time and support throughout the year. Volunteers must be at least 14 years of age. Those who are on our volunteer team will have opportunities to work with our riders, horses, and staff through 6-week sessions and unmounted clinics. We also have special events, such as our annual horse show and our annual Gala, that we can always use additional help for! Training is provided for all volunteers.
Come join our herd! Please feel free to reach out to us directly in order to learn more about how you can benefit from serving others with us!
