2021 El Salvador Equine Therapy

About the Journey

Through our partnership with La Casa de mi Padre, this global(x) team will head to El Salvador. Just north of the equator in Central America, El Salvador is a land of abundant volcanoes, beautiful mountain top views, black-sand beaches, and tropical rainforests. It’s the smallest and most densely populated country in Central America, and, sadly, it’s greatly overwhelmed by poverty and broken families.

We’re looking to build an engaging, animal-loving team interested in helping with La Casa’s Therapeutic Riding Program. Working with horses in a therapeutic setting provides significant physical and emotional benefits for the children, helping them address issues with fear, anger, trust, self-control, responsibility, and more. This global(x) team will help with the maintenance of their on-site riding rink, build obstacles for lessons, and help facilitate a horse show with the children.

The team will also engage with the families that live on the property and hike through rural areas to visit and deliver meals to families in surrounding villages. 

If you have experience with horses, have basic construction and maintenance skills, and don’t mind getting your hands dirty, this is the perfect opportunity for you!

New for 2021!

You're busy enough, so we're simplifying your to-do list! We've reduced the number of forms you need to complete, simply by adding a few questions to the global(x) application. Additionally, most of the tasks that you need to complete will now be completed within your trip page in ServiceReef!
