Donate to AHEAD With Horses Inc.
In December 2017 AHEAD With Horses purchased property to develop into their permanent location for their nonprofit developmental therapeutic vaulting program for children with disabilities. Here they are 6 years later, due to general delays and then the worldwide pandemic, still waiting to complete development and move to their forever home.
Recent progress has them nearing plan approval, but to keep the momentum going they desperately need funds to complete the development and move operations.
Won't you join them in bringing their dream to fruition and make a donation today?
AHEAD With Horses is celebrating 55 years of serving the Los Angeles community and needs your help to keep serving for another 55 years or more.
Donations can be made online at their website: awhla.org or through our Forever Home Campaign here: https://givebutter.com/AWHforeverhome
Thank you for any donation you are able to give! Every dollar helps them!

We’d love to have you join us for our Accessible Wednesday morning program, AW@10! Previously held biweekly as “2W@10,” these special events are held from 10:00am – 11:30am each Wednesday where we do fun activities to help local nonprofits. And what’s extra special about these Wednesday events? Our guests of honor are wonderful and fun volunteers with some developmental challenges who want to give back and help others, in groups and as individuals. The accessible activities we’ll do on Wednesdays are specifically designed with these guests in mind, so that everyone can participate and have fun volunteering – because we believe very strongly that absolutely everyone has something to give. People of ALL ability levels are invited to join us on Wednesdays! All we ask is that you show up ready to be part of a community of helpful people! Visit: https://bigsunday.org/get-involved/aw10/

TM@10 (Thursday Morning @ 10) is not only one of our favorite programs, but it’s one of our most popular, too! We meet every Thursday morning, from 10:00 AM – 11:30 AM. And we host hands-on projects to help local nonprofits. At TM@10 we’ve assembled birthday gifts for folks in shelters; written letters to soldiers stationed overseas; packed backpacks for ex-gang members starting college; made quilts for preemies; and about 1000 other things. Even better – and in classic Big Sunday fashion – it’s a great way for people to meet new people, work together, and enjoy some laughs while helping someone else.
