The EQUUS FOUNDATION’S mission is to protect the welfare and dignity of all horses, especially those transitioning from one chapter of their lives to the next. The foundation strives to strengthen the relationships between horses and humans, empower equine charities, inspire horse lovers to protect horses, and educate the public on how horses positively impact humanity. EQUUS believes that a collaborative relationship between horses and humans creates opportunities for horses to carry on a meaningful life that will positively impact people, both with and without special needs.
The NATIONAL CENTER FOR EQUINE FACILITATED THERAPY provides rehabilitative therapies for children and adults with special needs. NCEFT helps individuals that have physical, neuromuscular, and cognitive disabilities by incorporating horses through physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy. Other programs include Adaptive Riding, Horsemanship, Mental Health Resilience, Special Needs School Programs and Camp. NCEFT was founded in 1971, making it one of the groundbreaking equine therapy institutions.
DANNY & RON’S RESCUE, SOUTH CAROLINA & FLORIDA A repeat favorite of EQLiving readers, Danny & Ron’s Rescue is known for its incredible work and deep ties to the equestrian community. Since 2005, when they rescued 600 dogs in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, Danny & Ron have saved more than 13,000 abused, abandoned, and starving dogs, taking them in to live with them in their personal home —a.k.a. The Doghouse—to retrain and rehabilitate them. While at their house, which has grown into the ultimate canine safe haven, the dogs are groomed, vaccinated, welcomed onto their bed, and cared for like family until they can find their forever homes. Subjects of the popular Netflix documentary “Life in the Doghouse,” Danny and Ron have also published a series of children’s books.
