There's just something about a horse hug that's good for soul🤗🐴

We LOVE being the bridge between so many horse-human connections, especially for those benefiting from our Hearts & Hooves scholarship fund, but we know we can't do it alone. YOU can help, too!

Do you own a company or work for someone who understands the power of the human-horse connection? We’d love to connect with you!

“Our daughter Ella’s very first riding lesson was just six days after my father passed away,” shares Bonnie. “We walked into the barn truly in an absolute cloud of grief, not knowing what to expect. Windy was the horse she was assigned, and being with her, grooming her, and getting horse snuggles healed us. That hour was the first time in a long time that we actually felt joy."

Bonnie began riding shortly after, and both have been riding at Legacy Stables for over four years!

“The horses and the people here brought us joy in the darkest times and gave us community when we needed it most. Now, four years later, our lives are richer, more fulfilled, and filled with incredible friendships. We truly feel lucky to be part of the Legacy family.”

Because of this impact in their lives, Aaron and Bonnie Steensma choose to sponsor Hearts & Hooves in support of our scholarship fund which provides the horse-human connection that can be so healing through difficult times.

“We decided to become sponsors of Hearts & Hooves because we have experience firsthand how powerful equine therapy can be. We want others who are facing difficult circumstances to experience their own moment of healing through the human-horse connection.”
