We are so grateful for those who help provide life-changing healing with horses to our special needs friends.
Volunteers begin as Barn Buddies, learning the ropes at Manes and Miracles while completing barn chores.
Sidewalkers help by supporting the rider and therapist or instructor during equine-assisted programs.
With time and additional training, volunteers may progress to lead-walker, responsible for leading and advocating for the horse during a therapy session or adaptive riding lesson.
There are a lot of ways to help at the Ranch, so know that however you serve, you are blessing lives! Admin, marketing, landscaping, and facility improvements are just a few of the things volunteers help with around the ranch.
Orientations are held regularly. You will be notified of upcoming orientations when you have filled out the interest form or by following us on Facebook.
*We are unable to accommodate court-ordered community service hours*

Ambassadors join committees to spearhead various projects throughout the year, such as social media campaigns, fundraisers, appreciation events, vendor fairs, and other community engagement events and activities.
Ambassadors should be self-starters who want to commit to a long-term game, work well in a group and can also run within their role in the projects.
Internships at Manes and Miracles offer a hands-on, rewarding experience for students and professionals looking to make a real impact. Our internships provide the opportunity to work directly with children with disabilities, assist in equine-assisted sessions, and gain valuable insight into running a nonprofit. You'll build skills, form meaningful connections, and be part of a mission that changes lives—one ride at a time.
