PROJECT HOPE EQUINE ASSISTED THERAPIES INC
Project H.O.P.E., an equine-assisted therapy, 501(c)3 non-profit organization needs of a few additional board members.
We are based in Bowling Green and Findlay, Ohio, and are in search of energetic, positive and empathetic people who are looking to "give back" to a very worthy cause. Our organization focuses on providing financial support to children and families who need our equine assisted therapy services as well as carefully managing our horses and facilities.
Specifically, we are looking for the following in Board Members:
1) Someone able to attend in 70% or more of our board meetings (we are currently holding our meetings on Zoom, due to the coronavirus). We typically hold 9 meetings per year
2) Someone with a willingness to participate in a few additional activities over and above our board meetings. This can include any of the following: our summer camps, fundraisers such as Halloween on Horseback, help with our financial matters, marketing/social media, or working with our horses and facilities
3) We specifically need people who are able to help us with our social media activities. Of course, we are seeking others without those skills as well.
4.) Our board term commitment is a minimum of two years.
Our Board of Directors is an informal and relaxed group of individuals who are committed to working to support the children and families that need our equine assisted therapy services. In addition to supporting these families, our organization has a lot of fun and develops a strong comradery through our various activities. As board members, we all gain great satisfaction in the time we spend with the children.
If you are interested in discussing serving on our board, please reach out to our Chairman,
Phil Caris at pdcaris1@gmail.com.

The mission of Project H.O.P.E. is to enhance the quality of life for people dealing with emotional and behavioral challenges through innovative equestrian activities. We combine traditional therapy with the healing touch of horses. Our work focuses on providing these services to those families that cannot afford our counseling, through scholarships and reduced fee structures.
We have been serving the Findlay and Bowling Green, Ohio communities for over 15 years, providing Equine Assisted Therapies to our clients, regardless of their ability to pay for our counseling. We are a small organization that has no administrative employees, only contract counselors and volunteers. We have two locations, BG and Findlay and hold a number of fundraisers thought the year to support our efforts.
We'll work with your schedule.
