My Nonprofit Reviews

I have been volunteering for this organization for 11 years now and seeing these abused animals come in and evolve into healthy and beautiful horses is heartwarming. It’s bittersweet to bring a horse in and get them back to health and seeing them go to their forever home when I adopted. All the time and effort that the AAE Volunteer’s put into the care and healing of these horses is truly a blessing.

After my husband passed away in 2008 and after back surgery in 2010 I was referred to All About Equine to help with the office and clerical needs by someone who I had worked with previously in a horseback therapeutic non-profit which closed. I wanted to get back to the "up close and personal" contact with horses again although I could no longer perform some of the physical tasks I had done previously. In September 2011 I began clerical/computer/photography work with AAE. It started slowly with the Thank You notes. I now do a lot of the computer work at home, banking and office organization at the barn. During these years I have seen horses come and go, babies born and grown and adoptions. So many adoptions. Primarily success stories of these abused and scared and malnourished horses coming in and being brought back to heath, learning to trust humans again and provide enormous satisfaction in knowing these lives are saved and many by our volunteers themselves. Those tiny steps of progress can bring tears to my eyes knowing that finally one horse has learned to trust again. There are no words to describe the joy and fulfillment I feel every time I go out and see our horses, meet our fantastic volunteers and continue to admire the compassion and dedication that Wendy (CEO) has put into this program. And I feel that I am, too, making a difference in the lives of these equines.
