Happy 21st Birthday, "Autumn"!

(Birthday gift donations are accepted until Saturday, February 8th, 2025)

Happy 21st Birthday, “Autumn”! Today, we celebrate a cherished member of the Eudaemonia Equine Connections, Inc.® family—our therapy horse “Autumn”, who turns 21 (that's 63 in human years!).

“Autumn” has been a shining light in our equine-assisted mental health (EAMH) program, gently nudging and guiding participants toward healing, hope, and well-being. Over the past year, she’s been remarkable in her training and client sessions, touching hearts with her gentle spirit, calming presence, playfulness, and loyalty. We are endlessly grateful for her presence in our therapy herd.

To show our love and appreciation, we treated “Autumn” to an equine chiropractor session and will follow up with equine massage and energy work this weekend. On Thursday, we celebrated both our Barn Manager, Teresa Hetu’s, birthday and “Autumn’s milestone birthday with horse-friendly treats, toys, and even a taste of beer (enjoyed responsibly by “Autumn” and her buddies!).

If you’d like to honor this special birthday girl with a gift, your contribution will directly support her essential senior horse care needs, including bodywork, nutrition, veterinary care, and hoof maintenance.

Donate here today and share the love with “Autumn”! Celebrate this special girl with us, and donate her birthday gift today!

Our goal is to secure a $5,000 annual budget for Autumn’s care. Thanks to your generosity during our Holiday fundraiser, we raised $850! We still have $4,150 to go and would be deeply grateful for your support. Every contribution helps “Autumn” continue spreading her healing and joy to those who need it most.

Together, let's make “Autumn”’s birthday wish come true: To be loved and adored, and to continue sharing her gifts of healing and connection for years to come!

Thank you for celebrating with us!
