This week marks the beginning of our 10-week Fall session. As we navigate this challenging COVID-19 landscape, precautions have been put into place to ensure the safety of our participants, volunteers and staff. Our mounted program is beginning with those participants that can mount themselves without assistance. Others will have a family member that has been trained assist them during class, or they will take part in our unmounted Equine-Facilitated Learning program.
This year, 40 of our participants requested financial assistance through the Scholarship program. Your donation to the Scholarship Fund through GlobalGiving has allowed us to offer 6 individuals with special needs scholarships for the entire year. Most of those awarded are on Autism Spectrum. Thanks to your generosity, they will each receive 30 weeks of lessons as part of the Therapeutic Riding or Equine-Facilitated Learning programs.
We are deeply appreciative of your gift that brings the magic of the horse into the lives of children and adults with special needs.
