Volunteer
"Feed" Your Spirit - Get Involved with AOH
It always feels good to help others. But nothing compares to seeing the joy on the face of
someone you've helped rise above personal limitations. Giving someone the power to believe in himself
is the greatest gift you can possibly give.
That's what the volunteers of Angels on Horseback do every day.
Angels on Horseback offers therapeutic horseback riding and other equine activities to physically and
mentally challenged individuals. Equine therapy provides many physical benefits, including improvements
in strength, flexibility, muscle tone, and motor skill development. But it also provides many emotional
benefits: self-confidence, independence, a sense of belonging, and happiness.
Dedicated, caring individuals are needed to share their time and energy with others as part of the
Angels on Horseback program. As a volunteer, you'll meet new people, expand your awareness about
individuals with disabilities, enjoy the outdoors, learn about horses, all while having a great time!
All that's required is a willingness to help, and a big heart.
Volunteers are needed in all areas of the program. Tasks may include:
· lead or sidewalk for riders in the arena
· groom horses before and after lessons
· prepare horses with correct tack
· act as members of committees or the board of directors
· provide professional services, such as therapy and veterinary care,
legal, accounting
· perform clerical and administrative duties; i.e. writing grants and computer
record keeping
· conduct fundraisers or public relations campaigns
· work toward becoming an instructor
· maintain facilities and equipment
· plus many other ways to help within the program
Requirements include:
Minimum age 14
Completed and signed Volunteer Form
