🐎 Mustangs: Nature's Teachers Transform Lives In Calhan

🐴 Experience the Healing Power of Wild Horse Wisdom

Experience the magic of connection at the Mustang Ambassador Program (MAP) in Calhan. Here, the wild spirit of mustangs empowers lives, fostering growth and resilience in both children and adults. Imagine a child's face lighting up as they connect with these majestic creatures, learning valuable life lessons through equine-assisted activities. Picture adults rediscovering their inner strength, guided by the wisdom of these incredible animals.

MAP is more than just a horse program; it's a family built on passion and dedication. Founder Susan Sutherland's vision created a space where the human-animal bond thrives, led by experienced instructors like Jaime Wade, who shares her love of horses and teaching with each participant. Volunteers, like Heidi Gresse, witness firsthand the transformative power of these interactions, creating a supportive and nurturing environment.

Beyond individual growth, MAP champions the preservation of America's wild horses. By fostering a love for mustangs, they inspire advocates for their protection.

Join MAP and become a part of this inspiring story. Whether you volunteer your time or donate, your contribution makes a difference. Visit map1.org and Facebook, to learn more and experience the magic of MAP.
