Almost There and Thank You!
May 17, 2008 by kellymurphy00
First of all, I would like to thank everyone who has contributed so far - without people like you, these disabled children and adults would not have the opportunity to take part in Equine Therapy.
We are almost there - $195 contributed so far, only $5 DOLLARS to go!
For the price of a combo meal at a fast food restaurant, a grande latte at starbucks, less than the price of a good steak, book, or about the price of a pack of cigarettes - you can help me meet my goal of contributing $200 to the River Valley Riders Ride-A-Thon.
I can not tell you how much joy this program brings to the riders. I have personally seen a severely paraplegic young woman work to hold her head up and smile, a young boy with ADHD try to have better self control, and individuals with cerebral palsy working on motor control. This program deserves every dollar you can spare - they make a difference in the lives of the riders and the volunteers. I have put in many hours of volunteering and I can honestly say that working with RVR is a pleasure; they are so well orchestrated and focused on the beneficial interaction between rider, horse and the volunteers that no other organization compares.
Please go to my Ride for a Cause page and donate that last five dollars. I am so near my goal, just as RVR is near their goal - we just need you.
