Parents, our volunteers are a very important part of our program. There are various ways young people can volunteer their talents: as horse handlers, spotters, barn keepers, maintenance workers, organizers, office workers and team leaders. During the summer, Junior Volunteers ages 10-18 are able to come to Whispers of Hope for full days where they learn to work around the barn with the horses and other volunteers, performing daily chores. This program runs from June to July and helps keep the youth motivated and active. No couch potatoes here! Tuesday thru Friday during each camp session, the Youth will arrive at 8 am with sack lunch and water jug and be picked up around 4:30 pm. They will learn teamwork, compassion, motivation, and responsibility, among other things. If they are interested, they will also be able to learn more about riding, in a supervised setting. We are a non-profit organization, and each child’s $60.00 weekly fee goes directly to buy feed for the horses.
Let your children be part of a mission which enables other young people with challenges to become more productive in their own lives. This mission can only succeed with God’s grace and the support of our volunteers. Thank you for your support.

  4. This post was from 2009, so you'll have to contact them to see what they are offering currently. Their new website is http://www.whispersofhopehf.org. But their phone number is the same, (940) 696-8044.
