Victory Reins Therapeutic Riding Center
June 30, 2011

When I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease my doctor had told me that horses were a great form of therapy. Now, 10 years later, I fully understand what he meant. I have been volunteering with Victory Reins for almost a year now and I can't imagine how I went so long without being part of this community. The people there are amazing and the interaction with the children is so powerful. All of the staff, parents, students, and even the animals make Victory Reins my favorite place to be each week! I truly believe this organization is worth its weight in gold and so many people benefit from its existence. Come on out and see for yourself!

The Great!

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

many ways. I have seen the impact that the organization has on the students and their growth in as little as one lesson. I've seen it make a difference in the parents and their interaction with their kids. It makes a difference in the lives of the volunteers and staff members and even the animals grow!

Ways to make it better...

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Make sure that it got the funding needed to operate at its true potential. This organization has an amazing momentum behind it that (as is to be expected) is only stunted by the lack of funds at times as it continues to grow.
