Jolene's Horse Rescue Volunteers - Jolene's Horse Rescue

Volunteers are needed for the many chores required to care of the rescued horses that live at Jolene's Horse Rescue. If you are not in our area, we welcome volunteers who can network from home.

It is necessary to make it clear that this is not a riding club, but a working ranch. We need dedicated people who want to be members of a team of caring individuals that help the quality of life that these unfortunate horses.

Aside from the physical tasks that are mandatory for a healthy horse, there are many tasks that need to be done for this organization to function effectively and obtain its goals.

Applicants must:

Have a willingness to serve.
Be 18 years of age or older.
Commit to four hours of service per week for a minimum commitment of six months.

WOW

Wonderful Outdoor World) is a unique program that introduces urban youth to outdoor recreation and environmental education. Unlike other camping and recreation programs WOW brings the wonders and excitement of camping and the environment directly into the neighborhoods and communities of the children most in need. This innovative new approach reduces the apprehension many young people face when camping outdoors for the first time and provides them with the basic skills and encouragement to enjoy further out door experiences.

WOW is a result of the hard work of a unique group of companies and governmental agencies interested in outdoor recreation and the environment. WOW national sponsors include the Coleman Company, the Walt Disney Company, U.S. National Park Service, U.S. Bureau of Land Management, U.S. Forest Service, Chevy/GEO, and Wells cargo.

Local Sponsors include Ralph's Grocery company, the Los Angeles Times, Cal. Dept. of Fish & Game, Cal. State parks, CSULB, and the L.A. City Dept. of Recreation & Parks.

Jolene's Horse Rescue participates in teaching riding skills to these children as they prepare for the WOW equestrian group in the annual Tournament of Roses Parade.
