At Dark Horse Inclusion, our horses are more than lesson partners — they are healers, teachers, and lifelines for children with disabilities and special needs. Every day, they support our students physically, emotionally, and socially, and it is our responsibility to give them the safest, healthiest environment possible in return.

We are raising funds to purchase 26 SuperTuff heavy-duty flat-back buckets for our barn. These buckets are not just a convenience — they are a critical safety upgrade. Flat-back buckets sit securely against stall walls, reducing the risk of tipping, cracked plastic, and sharp edges that can cause injuries to both horses and students. Their heavy-duty design stands up to daily use, extreme temperatures, and the wear and tear that comes with a busy adaptive riding program.

Reliable water and feed buckets mean fewer accidents, cleaner stalls, better hydration for our horses, and a safer space for the children who work so closely beside them. Something as simple as a sturdy bucket plays a huge role in protecting the horses who carry our mission forward.

By helping us replace all 26 buckets, you are directly improving the care of the incredible herd that makes Dark Horse Inclusion possible — and ensuring our riders can continue to learn, grow, and heal in a safe and supportive barn environment.
