AHEAD With Horses Inc

Moira is enjoying some new shavings.

Due to all of the Stay-At-Home orders, we will be canceling all lessons through the end of December. While we are sad we will not get to see all of our students, we feel it is the responsible thing to do. We hope that all of our students, families, volunteers and friends stay safe and healthy. ... Thank you

Throw Back Thursday, Holiday Edition

Dear AHEAD With Horses Families, Friends and Supporters, We hope you are all doing well and staying healthy! As you know, we created a COVID-19 Plan with Phases, and had started Phase 2 in the beginning of June where were began to see some students. We have updated our Phases as more information has become known. This includes protocols for cleaning and disinfecting, restrictions on how many people can come to our site at a time, restrictions on where people can go when on th...e property and other information. This plan is continuing to be reviewed and updated as new information is given. You can see the updated Phases below. We are continuing to allow a limited number of volunteers per day. For now, we are in our Updated Phase 4 and plan to continue to have a limited number of lessons per day (2-3 on weekdays and up to 7 now on a Saturday, which includes a half an hour in between lessons to clean and sanitize) with students that are able to wear a mask for the entire lesson. we will now be able to take students who require a spotter IF there is someone in their household, who is 12 or older, who is willing to fill that position. The schedule is different than it was before the pandemic happened and so far we have had about a third of our students able to come in. We will continue to re-evaluate depending on the mandates by the state, county and city and the amount of new cases. During these hard times we still need all the help we can get. Our horses still need to eat and be taken care of. Please consider making a donation or sponsoring a horse to help with their upkeep, or if money is tight, please consider hosting a Facebook fundraiser for AHEAD With Horses. We will continue to evaluate the situation as it evolves and will keep everyone up to date as decisions are being made. We at AWH hope you all remain safe and healthy and we hope to see you at the ranch soon!

https://awhla.networkforgood.com//108537-gem-society-give- Be a GEM! Join our GEM (Give Every Month) Society today and be part of a special group of AWH supporters that we can count on each month.... Continuous giving lets us plan on a minimum amount of funds for items such as feed, medicines, and other supplies for our hard working therapy horses. This allows us to spend our time focusing on the students and the incredible progress they can make during lessons. You can pledge as little as $5 a month or as much as you are able! We have different GEM tiers, and each one is special and appreciated.
