Horseback riding is a great therapy tool for children and adults with disabilities. Gallop NYC is a non-profit organization that provides this in the NYC area. According to their website, this therapeutic horsemanship "uses the pleasures and skills of horseback riding and horse knowledge to build developmental, emotional, social, and physical skills for each individual rider." Volunteers don't need any experience with horses at all, just a desire to help! By volunteering at Gallop, you are expected to help lead the horse around with two other volunteers. This is something to continue throughout the year, since their busiest months are September-June. Gallop really appreciates its volunteers, and you will definitely be making someone's day when you help out!
