Benni Visits GAIT

by Chrisanne Cubby

Yesterday Benni and I visited GAIT, a therapeutic riding organization based in Milford, PA. It was a nice opportunity for Benni to interact with children and their families – as well as to meet the special horses involved in the program.

One young girl was reluctant to pet Benni.  She sat down and first touched him with a finger.  He leaned against her and sat on her shoes.  She then petted him.  When she was done she said, \”Benni told me not to be afraid.\”

It\’s moments like this that I see so clearly the value in what I am doing.

To learn more about GAIT, and to cast your vote in a contest that will allow the nonprofit to add a new horse to its program, visit the organization\’s Facebook page.
