carry on the trail & yoga with horses
Equest is committed to helping veterans and military families successfully transition to civilian life by leveraging the healing power of horses. We are proud to be a 7-year Carry The Load nonprofit partner and an original member of the "Continuum of Care", CTL's collaborative network of nonprofits dedicated to providing year-round support for those who sacrifice on our behalf.
​
To celebrate Memorial May, Equest will partner with Warrior Spirit Project to host our very own Carry It Anywhere event - "Carry It on The Trail & Yoga With Horses". Join us Sunday, May 7th, from 1:30 P.M. - 3:00 P.M. as we march down the Holland Trail in Dallas' Great Trinity River Forest for our annual flag replacement ceremony, honoring the men and women who gave their last full measure of devotion, including LTC Daniel E. Holland. We would love to have you stay for Yoga With Horses which will follow the walk, as well as observe a mock counseling session. Families welcome!
​
Please join our Carry The Load team, create your own page, and raise $50 or more on that page. Funds that you raise will count towards the team total, and our goal is to raise $2,500.00 for Hooves for Heroes this year! One fundraising page per family is acceptable.
