HORSES N HEROES OF MARION COUNTY INC. BRINGING HORSES  & CHILDREN TOGETHER

Horses N Heroes is dedicated to providing an equine learning and mentoring experience for young girls who come from families with extreme financial constraints. There is no fee for participating in the program. 

The girls are provided with the opportunity to bond with horses and each other. Through this experience they gain self-esteem, a sense of responsibility, the understanding of teamwork and a strong extracurricular that can benefit their long term growth.

The girls are taught all aspects of horsemanship including: riding, grooming, feeding and caring for the donated horses. Our horses are also finding a second life full of care and attention. 

Horses N Heroes is about bringing horses and children together and igniting the potential in both, providing hope for a bright future and self-assurance in their own abilities. Please consider supporting our mission today!

FROM CURRENT & ALUMNI MEMBERS

I started at Horses N Heroes as an incredibly shy 9-year old girl. I knew I loved animals and wanted to give horseback riding a try. The program taught me so many skills that to this day follow me in life. The most important thing I learned is to work hard and stop up and take charge. If it were not for Mindy & Horses N Heroes, I certainly would not have become the person and rider I am today!

When I first started at Horses N Heroes in 2005, I was seven years old and I would go to the barn anywhere from three to five days a week all the way until after graduating high school and moving to Kentucky.

Horses N Heroes was a program to help me escape from any tribulations my home life was having at the time and prepare me to have good work skills needed. My childhood was not the best but I was fortunate enough to have. A program like Horses N Heroes to help me forget all my worries and helped me become a successful adult in a highly competitive career.

One thing I love about Horses N Heroes is that you get to learn teamwork and responsibility. You also get to meet incredible horses you get to take care of and ride.
