My Nonprofit Reviews

I love horses. I wanted to take lessons, but I didn’t really want to compete in jumping competitions. I just wanted a horse to love on.Then I found out about Guardian hearts. My nana messaged the Facebook page and asked how old one had to be to be able to volunteer, since I am only 11 years old. We figured I wouldn’t be able to since most of the places we checked you had to be 13 or older. We were surprised to hear that they accepted volunteers from as young as eight years old, as long as they had a parent with them. I was so excited to learn all about these horses. I started off working with Baby, a 21 year old Medicine Hat paint mare. She was the tallest horse I had ever seen. After a couple of weeks of working with her, I started working with new horses. The horse I worked with mostly was Hudson, a 19 year old flea bitten Arabian gelding. He was so amazingly sweet. He is definitely one of my favorites. Over the summer, I have met and worked with different horses, watched some of them go to new homes, and learned so many things along the way. Thank you Ms Lucy, for all you’ve taught me over the summer. Thank you to Mom and Dad for supporting me. And especially thank you Hudson, and Katie. Your both definitely someone besides my parents that I can tell everything to. Love you guys so much!
