Review for Pegasus Riding Academy For The Handicapped, Palm Desert, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I started volunteering at Pegasus Riding Academy in march 2010, the staff, volunteers, clients and horses are all wonderful, I feel like i've known them all my life, it has become such a big part of my life, that sometimes i dont want to leave, my husband is now involved and he feels just as strongly as me about the wonderful work That Pegasus Riding Academy does, I know we will be here for a long time.

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

Helping autistic children mount a horse and walk with them for their session, I recently had the honor of side walking 2 of our riders at the Devon horse show, I was in total awe at these kids, one is non verbal but boy did she know she was showing, i was amazed and cried with joy when she was awarded her ribbon

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

Add a class for people who suffer depression.
