Therapeutic Ride Algoma is a volunteer-based charitable organization serving the Algoma region since 1999, in providing the joys and benefits of horseback riding to children, youth and adults who live with a disability.
Our program promotes growth, achievement and empowerment for individuals with disabilities, through the use of horses.
Community support and a strong volunteer base have always been critical to our success. Our program relies on the continued generous support of our community, dedicated groups of volunteers and the love of giving others a positive, nurturing experience
Our mission;
To provide adaptive horseback riding activities in a safe, enjoyable and professional environment
To help improve the physical, social and psychological well-being of people with an assortment of disabilities, including cognitive, developmental, physical, and sensory impairment.
To provide opportunities for freedom, learning and growth by connecting participants with horses.
TRA is entirely volunteer-based and depends on the generous support from various local community organizations, without which we would not be able to provide this service to the many individuals in Algoma who find this activity so beneficial. Our program relies on donations from private individuals, service groups and fundraising campaigns to keep our costs as low as possible. Riders are charged a minimal lesson fee to help offset some of the program costs.
Please consider volunteering or making a donation today to help support this specialized program.
