Connected Horse #GivingTuesday
CONNECTED HORSE - GIVING TUESDAY
Help Us Raise $15,000 to Bring Hope and Healing to Families Facing Dementia
Every day, families facing dementia experience fear, loss, and uncertainty. At Connected Horse, we help replace those feelings with connection and understanding — through the healing power of horses.
Backed by groundbreaking research from Stanford University and UC Davis, our equine-guided workshops bring care partners and their loved ones together in the arena for shared, non-riding experiences that restore confidence and compassion. Participants often tell us these moments feel like “coming back to each other.".
“When my husband and I came to Connected Horse, I didn’t know what to expect. By the end of the workshop, I saw him smile again — really smile — for the first time in months. The horses gave us both something we thought we’d lost: hope.”
— Connected Horse Participant
This Giving Tuesday, we’re setting out to raise $15,000 to bring that same hope to even more families.
Your Support Will Help Us:
Bring more Connected Horse workshops to families throughout California — expanding beyond our current locations in Calistoga, Pleasanton, and Nevada.
Train and certify new facilitators across California and the U.S. to reach more people impacted by dementia.
Advance our groundbreaking research on the benefits of equine-guided therapy in partnership with leading universities.
Provide additional Sensory Kits — including our new Spanish-language version — to help participants and care partners build connection at home.
The benefits of these experiences are profound and long-lasting — reducing stress, strengthening relationships, and reminding families that they are not alone.
Please give today to help us continue this important work and bring the healing power of horses to more people who need it most.
🐴 Every gift — large or small — helps us reach our $15,000 goal.
Thank you,
