At MTR, every ride, session, and moment of connection depends on the right equipment. Well-fitting saddles, adaptive reins, and other important tools like lead ropes and halters help participants gain confidence, ride safely, and build independence. They also keep our horses comfortable so they can continue the amazing work they love.

This Giving Tuesday, December 2, your gift provides the tools that make healing and growth possible. And thanks to an $8,000 matching gift, your support goes twice as far!
