Bowling Green’s New Beginnings Therapeutic Riding Desperately Needs Volunteers

Renowned nonprofit organization New Beginnings Therapeutic Riding located in Bowling Green, Kentucky, has issued an urgent call for volunteers. The organization, which uses therapeutic horse riding to serve individuals with disabilities, is desperately short-staffed and needs all the help it can get to ensure the continuation of their crucial services.

Volunteers: The Second Most Important Part of the Organization

While the organization boasts of a spirited staff of three part-time employees, the pressing need for additional hands cannot be overstated. “The number one thing in our program are the horses. And the second most important is the volunteers… volunteers help us in so many different ways, such as helping with our participants, helping in the barn, helping with the horses, helping in the office,” the organization’s spokesperson Michele Vise says. The organization seeks volunteers to help out in various capacities, making it possible for individuals with varying skills and interests to contribute effectively.

The Value of Volunteering

The need for volunteers does not only arise from the pressing need to sustain the operations of the organization. Volunteers also play a central role in creating and strengthening the emotional bonds between the disabled participants and the horses. This reinforces the therapeutic process, which is built not just around active participation, but also on the building of trust, empathy, and emotional connection with the majestic creatures.

How to Volunteer

Interested volunteers can reach out to New Beginnings Therapeutic Riding directly via their contact number 270-777-3600. The organization holds a volunteer orientation once a month for newcomers to understand the mission and the various roles that they can take up.

Given the invaluable work this organization does for Bowling Green’s disabled community, helping them stay active and engaged, this call for volunteers cannot be more crucial. Whether you are comfortable handling horses or better suited to office work, your help can go a long way in ensuring that the great work being done by New Beginnings continues.
