Volunteer
Savannah Station relies on a gifted group of volunteers to make the magic happen and to keep the program operational and free of charge to our riders. Our trained volunteers provide the support and guidance necessary for both horse and rider. Savannah Station could not operate without dedicated volunteers. They are our backbone and primary source of support.
Our volunteers dedicate their time and energy to the fulfillment of our mission to provide Hope and Healing with Horses. Savannah Station volunteers are caring and compassionate and have a passion for helping each individual rider achieve their highest goals while providing the best support during their equine therapy sessions. Whether you have experience with horses, with kids or just simply life, there is a position for everyone at Savannah Station. Both adults and young adults are welcome! If you are between 10 and 14, bring an adult to volunteer with you. If you are younger than 10, be patient…you’ll be old enough soon!

In the arena where horse and rider become one, every lesson is taught by a certified instructor. Most every rider starts out with a three-person volunteer support team. This team is made up of a horse leader who is responsible for guiding and caring for the horse and two side-walkers, one on either side of the rider, with the responsibility of steadying, protecting and encouraging the rider.
Outside of the arena, there are many other valuable ways volunteers help Savannah Station help our riders. Volunteers help with event planning, fundraising and horse care just to name a few. If you have a passion for this program we need you! Savannah Station holds volunteer orientation prior to each new riding semester; Spring, Summer and Fall. Every volunteer will be fully trained and equipped to perform their assigned work. No experience with horses or with special needs is required. To register for a volunteer position, please complete the volunteer application found on this page.
