The Joy of Jasper,
Inc., is a non-profit corporation dedicated to providing sanctuary to
abused, abandoned, neglected or unwanted horses and ponies. This
corporation was formed in memory of a very special horse, Jasper, who
made all the difference in the world to one little girl.
The Joy of Jasper is the joy that comes from taking care of and being with an animal as magnificent as a horse or a pony. The Joy of Jasper is also the joy that the horse or pony feels when he knows that he has found a way to our pastures. Horses and ponies that are surrendered to The Joy of Jasper are never put up for adoption. These special equines will be cared for by The Joy of Jasper until they pass away.
Horses and ponies are powerful, yet graceful and sensitive. They are majestic and beautiful – an American symbol, if you will. They are intuitive, and they have an uncanny way of inspiring confidence, self-esteem, trust and love in those who care for them. At The Joy of Jasper, it is our vision to bring at-risk youth to the barn to work with our horses, so that they can receive these gifts.
Our first horse, Arie, has already bestowed these gifts upon a very special child. Since working with Arie, this twelve year old child has gone from failing out of school to being on the Honor’s List. She has gained self-esteem, confidence, trust and love. She has felt the Joy of Jasper. It is our vision to bring this joy to so many more children.
Our vision can only become a reality with your help.
Change the life of a horse that can change the life of a child.
