THE HORSE PROJECT
PEOPLE HELPING HORSES. HORSES HELPING PEOPLE.
ABOUT
The Horse Project is about people helping horses and horses helping people.
We rehabilitate, re-train, and re-home rescued horses
who have been abandoned, abused and neglected. For over ten years
we have worked to prepare rescued horses for new and caring homes
that best suit their individual skills, talents, and potential,
and given sanctuary to those in need.
Now the horses are helping people in our Better With Horses programs.
Better With Horses offers a solution-based path to positive, long-lasting change. The goal is simple - to feel better, live better, communicate better and work together better.
We also offer experiences like Play With Rescued that promote the therapeutic horse-human connection and educate people
about these amazing animals.
We are an all-volunteer group partnering with professionals
in Better With Horses, providing for the horse' health, conditioning, and
ground and under saddle training.
Located in Santa Barbara, California, The Horse Project, a California nonprofit operates under the 501(c)3 fiscal sponsorship of
Players Philanthropy Fund. All donations are tax deductible
to the full extent of the law.

When you laugh with an "oh, Jackie", you passed the test, and she's over it. Likes a long walk out. Meander the trails on your new best friend. Advanced Beginner Rider. Interested in ?
Anjo
Azteca, Gelding, 20 yrs young. A beautiful, energetic big boy in a man's body. Curious, friendly and open to learning. He's taken his manners training in stride, is a gentleman most of the time, and makes us laugh with his good natured "all about me" antics. Just under saddle. Calm and willing. Interested in making the journey with him to the next level ?
