Volunteering

You can share in the joy of our riders! NVTRP is able to operate because of our dedicated volunteers.  You too can help people with disabilities in your community by volunteering for our program.

Volunteers are currently needed in the following areas:

  • Horse Leaders *
  • Sidewalkers *
  • Fundraising
  • Stable Maintenance

* Horse Leaders and Sidewalkers: Help with lessons and have the most fun! Volunteers commit to one day (approx 3 hrs) per week for the 8-12 week session. Training is provided and horse experience is valued but not required. Volunteers must be at least 14 years of age.

Lessons are given in the afternoon, Monday through Thursday, and in the morning and afternoon on Saturday and Sunday.
