Our Mission Statement
The Lucky Foundation is committed to building a resilient and interconnected community within the special needs sector through our equine program. By harnessing the therapeutic power of horses, we aim to create a space where individuals with special needs not only find support but also experience a profound sense of accomplishment. Our mission is to cultivate a community where every participant, regardless of ability, can achieve personal milestones, fostering a shared journey of success and fulfillment. Together, we stride towards a future where each member discovers their unique strengths and contributes to a thriving, empowered community.

Who do we serve?
At The Lucky Foundation, we are proud to serve equestrians with disabilities and individuals with special needs who have a passion for horses and a desire to grow both in and out of the arena. Our riders come from a wide range of backgrounds and abilities, each bringing their own unique strengths, challenges, and goals. We provide a supportive, inclusive environment where participants can build confidence, independence, and life skills through meaningful connections with horses. Whether it’s a rider experiencing the joy of being in the saddle for the first time or an athlete competing at a national level, we are committed to meeting each individual where they are and helping them succeed. Beyond our riders, we also support families, caregivers, and our community by creating opportunities for involvement, education, and connection. Through our programs, we strive to make equestrian experiences accessible, empowering, and life-changing for everyone we serve.
