Review for Naples Therapeutic Riding Center, Naples, FL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I started volunteering with NEC mainly to participate with the horses as I think many of us may have done. However, once you experience the joy the riders recieve and see their bodies and minds respond to the therapy of riding you can never question the benefit of these programs. It has been a true joy to be part of this organization.

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

seeing strength and self esteem develope in so many of our riders over the past three years.

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

love to make fund raising easier.....

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

seeing the emotional and physical difference riding is making in these lives, young and old alike. Personally I have made many new friends and feel truly humbled to be part of this experience.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

One big happy family!! :) Everyone has been willing to pitch in and help wherever it's needed and everyone seems glad to do it.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

Oh boy, we could buy lots more horses and build a bigger barn and have lots more fun.

Ways to make it better...

honestly, it has been better than any of my expectations.

In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...

funding I think is always the biggest challenge of a non-profit. Our staff and the volunteers are ready willing and able, all we need is money to keep it going.
