Horsepower Foundation

Horsepower Foundation is a 501C3 charitable foundation existing to help fund the mission of therapeutic riding for the disabled.

For over 35 years  Pam Hayes-Houldin, a nationally certified Master Instructor has continued to see her Equine Assisted Therapeuticsprogram grow in the number of riders served at Horsepower Farm.  Over 50 clients, ranging in age from 2 to 60+ ride every week weather permitting.  Four local school districts send their students with special needs to the farm to ride and to participate in hands on learning that takes place in the barn. Residents from Group Homes and private individuals are served as well.

 

As a program involved with Huntingdon County PRIDE, Horsepower receives financial support per rider, but that does not begin to cover the expenses incurred maintaining the 15 hardworking program horses which includes feed, blacksmith, veterinarian care and program equipment. As costs continue to rise, maintaining the services for our riders is becoming more difficult.

 

In order to continue to provide quality programs for our riders Horsepower is initiating a fundraising campaign. Your financial support will help the program serve additional riders as well as help to maintain our very special heroes who work hard everyday!   

 

Until now we have not asked for support from our friends of Horsepower  We are asking everyone that can, to donate what they can, if possible,
