DiscountRamps Helps Promote Animal-Assisted Therapy with Donation to Gentle Carousel Miniature Therapy Horses

 Posted on: September 17th, 2019

DiscountRamps.com proudly donated three modified loading ramps to the award-winning non-profit charity Gentle Carousel Miniature Therapy Horses.

The charity, which is based out of Gainesville, Florida, sends teams of tiny horses to lift the spirits of over 40,000 children, veterans, and other adults each year. Because the therapeutic horses are sent out to hospitals, hospice programs, and with children who have experienced traumatic events, the modified wheelchair ramps are essential for helping to load and unload the tiny horses to visit those in need. Each ramp has been specially modified by the product experts at DiscountRamps.com to ensure that they are safe for use by the miniature horses.

"At DiscountRamps.com, we are always inspired by organizations like Gentle Carousel that can touch the hearts and help to restore the lives of so many children with developmental disabilities, individuals affected by traumatic events, veterans, the elderly, and the terminally ill," says Eric Grunewald, Chief Marketing Officer and Vice President of eCommerce at DiscountRamps.com. "We are thrilled that our ramps will be used to help transport these miniature therapy horses around the country to touch even more lives."
