Volunteers needed to help horses help kids

The Spring Creek Horses Help Foundation in Three Oaks is looking for volunteers.

Spring Creek Horses Help Foundation is a nonprofit that provides an “equine-assisted learning program” teaching under-resourced children and adults about horse behavior, how to care for a horse, and how to ride. While working with horses, participants build critical life skills, such as confidence, responsibility, teamwork, and empathy for animals.

The group is recruiting volunteers for their programs and will hold a new volunteer training program on Saturday, April 6.

Volunteers are trained to work with children while they learn to groom, tack, and ride a horse. Children attend 3-hour classes on Saturdays in the spring and fall.

Volunteers must be adults with horse experience. They are gearing up for their spring classes and a New Volunteer Training will be held on April 6 from 10:00 AM to Noon at Spring Creek Equestrian Center, 16771 Pardee Road in Three Oaks.

Registration is required. To register, send an email to info@springcreekhorseshelp.org.
