For a young person:
- It can fulfill a curriculum requirement

- A volunteer experience can help you build new skills that can help in a job hunt.
- It’s a great way to avoid a ‘gap’ on your resume.
- Keep some structure and routine in your suddenly-empty daytime schedule.
- Great way to meet new people
- Exercise and fresh air
- Give purpose to your day
- Become involved with your community
- Makes it possible for us to provide equine therapy to approximately 75 children and adults in our community.
“The motivating belief is that therapy through horseback riding is one of the more progressive forms of therapy, offering empowerment and inspiring self-confidence, a sense of responsibility and teamwork. Most importantly, riding is a FUN way to receive therapy!”
We are very lucky in our small and remote town of Powell River to have access to this type of therapy and we could not do this without our Volunteers.
We fill from 24 to 50 spots A DAY with our volunteers supporting our riders.
We can run up to approximately 6000 volunteer hours a year for our riding program, special events, facility maintenance, special projects, horse care and more.
