The Chestnut Family Foundation has donated $450,000 to the Chastain Horse Park to support the expansion of its therapeutic programs. The donation will be used primarily to fund additional access to the programs, including students in special needs classes of Title 1 schools within Atlanta Public Schools.
Chastain Horse Park is committed to empowering individuals of all abilities through life-changing relationships with horses. Through its therapeutic programs, Chastain Horse Park serves individuals with a broad range of physical, cognitive and emotional abilities and all socioeconomic backgrounds. They currently conduct over 5,200 therapeutic sessions each year with a focus on the disability community.
We have witnessed the powerful impact of the Chastain Horse Park’s work on young people with disabilities and deeply appreciate being able to play a role in the expansion of their programming.
