Sunrise Therapeutic Riding and Learning Centre is looking for volunteers to help with its weekly programs.
“Can you help a child with special needs one hour per week?” organizers ask in a press release.
There are many ways volunteers can be involved in the therapeutic riding program at Sunrise’s 100-acre farm only 15 minutes from Guelph and from Cambridge.
Training is provided for volunteers to help as leaders or side walkers in therapeutic riding lessons once per week.
Volunteers also help with gardening, office support, building and maintenance projects, painting, and housekeeping.
Weekdays and evenings as well as weekend time slots are available.
“Autumn is a beautiful time at the Sunrise farm – come out to the country and enjoy fresh air, exercise and new friends – and make a difference in your community,” organizers state.
Contact Lynne O’Brien at Sunrise to sign up for a volunteer orientation and training at 519-837-0558, extension 31 or lynne@sunrise-therapeutic.ca.
Don’t delay – training dates are scheduled for early September.
