ABOUT OUR ORGANIZATION
Vision
Our vision at EquineAbility is to establish a first-rate therapeutic riding facility in the Niagara Region, which offers people with life changing joy, accomplishment and freedom through connections with horses.
OUR STORY
Making Strides Changing Lives
Our Vision: To offer the rewarding experience of interacting with and riding horses to those who, because of various mobility and developmental limitations, would not have that opportunity.
The vision became reality and EquineAbility Therapeutic Riding Centre was born in 2010. Led by a volunteer Board of Directors we were incorporated as a not-for-profit entity. Since those early beginnings EquineAbility Therapeutic Riding Centre has grown and matured. We are now a fully accredited charity registered with the Canada Revenue
Agency.
Having recognized the special needs of some of our clients who are not able mount and ride a horse, the Board of EquineAbility decided to purchase a horse-drawn cart. A donation from Wise Guys Charity Fund helped us acquire a handcrafted, wheel-chair accessible cart with tie-down system. A fundraiser at the O’Hara farm provided the money we needed to complete the purchase of harnesses and storage.
