Become a Volunteer

Volunteers are the heart of our program

Thank you for your interest in volunteering!

You are the caring people who help to improve the lives of individuals with special needs here at Children of Promise Stable. Volunteering is a rewarding, as well as, an educational experience. We are always looking for committed volunteers to help maintain our facilities, horses and provide assistance to our students.

Who Can Volunteer

You! We feel certain you will enjoy the opportunity to work with individuals in our program. Volunteers must be 16 years of age or older, and those under 18 years old need written parental consent. Children of Promise Stable provides comprehensive training to all volunteers. Horse experience is valued but not required.

Ways You Can Give

Volunteers with equestrian experience, or those who want to learn, can help groom, tack horses, serve as horse leaders, or walk along the rider’s sides in helping to support them. Learning to be a horse leader or side walker helps our riders enjoy a safe and educational riding lesson.

Other opportunities are available to participate in caring of the horses or helping with barn maintenance. Volunteers may also assist with special events and fundraisers. We need people with all kinds of talent to help with our program.
