Giant Steps Therapeutic Equestrian Center was founded in 1998, and is based on the belief that caring for and riding horses can be a powerful and life-changing tool for healing individuals with physical, emotional, and developmental challenges. Our names are Clara Bonomi and Mika Clear. We are helping to raise money for this non-proft organization. Giant Steps is an amazing way to let children and adults who might not otherwise have the chance to see and experience the magic of a relationship with a horse. Giant Steps long-term goal is to improve the health outcomes of Bay Area children and adults with disabilities by providing them with affordable, effective and safe equine-based therapeutic services.

Hello! Myself and my friend Avery Schoen are raising money to benefit Giant Steps Therapeutic Equestrian Center located in Petaluma, California. Giant Steps is a nonprofit organization providing the physically and mentally disabled with the opportunity to ride horses. Our goal is to raise money for the program and to compete in the Giant Steps Junior Relay at the Giant Steps Charity Classic Horse Show held at Sonoma Horse Park. It is a wonderful organization that provides a great service to the Bay Area community.
