Equine Angels Foundation is a volunteer run horse rescue dedicated to nurturing the spirit and well-being of children in need within the Orlando community and its surrounding area through programmed horse activities. We provide a fun, positive, healthy, and encouraging ranch environment where our volunteers work one on one with children ranging in age from 4-18 as they care for and ride our rescued horses.With the knowledge that children are unique in their own ways, our program is geared towards the individual wants, needs, and specific abilities of each child. Family involvement is key to what we do. We ask that parents accompany their child and share in their triumphs while getting a chance to breathe and relax in the open air of our ranch facilities. In addition to providing a place where at risk children and children facing challenges gain increased self-confidence, hope, and self-worth, we also provide a loving forever home to rescued horses.
