Our Programs: Let’s Make MVHR the Western Slope’s Go-To Resource for Equine Rescue & Education
MVHR’s Education and Outreach programs grow our volunteer base and educate the next generation, leading to the rehabilitation of more horses and assuring that our efforts continue beyond next year.
Lindsey Vonn helped spread the word this year, too! Our unique education and service opportunities, for kids and adults, also lead towards making MVHR the go-to community resource for equine education and outreach on the Western Slope. And we have new staff, who are building on Amy Ben-Horin’s foundation!
When MVHR’s equine care community of children, adults, service groups, families, and businesses grows, so grows our outreach, and our pool of possible forever homes and foster opportunities. Much of this growth happens through:
School Service Days
Employee Group Service Days
Monthly Community Service Days
In-depth Basic Volunteer Training & Support
Summer Day Camp
Mini-Horse Heroes
High School Rescue Club
The foundational curricula of these programs was developed by Amy Ben-Horin, MVHR’s first ever Programs Coordinator. Amy (& her husband Dan) moved to the Unaweep Canyon area this past August, and she is succeeded by Steph Busley, Volunteer Coordinator and Kensie Redden, Programs Coordinator. These talented education professionals will build upon Amy’s foundational work – with your continued support.
