OUR MISSION

The mission of SIRE is to provide a community where horses help people with disabilities and challenges to live their best life.

The power of therapeutic horsemanship to change lives has been known for hundreds of years. Scientific studies and those who participate note benefits including:

  • Increased strength

  • Improved balance

  • Increased flexibility

  • Enriched social interactions

  • Improved coordination

  • Enhanced self-esteem

WHAT WE DO

SIRE serves adults and children with a wide variety of special needs including, but not limited to cerebral palsy, autism, Down syndrome, multiple sclerosis, developmental delay, attention deficit/ hyperactivity disorder, traumatic brain injury and spinal cord injury.

Through equine-assisted activities and therapies, our riders experience the many benefits of therapeutic horsemanship described below.

NEW! SIRE Arena Partners Program

Arena banners offer a unique way for local businesses and corporate partners to visibly support our riders and horses. Displayed year-round in our arena, these banners are seen by families, volunteers, event guests, and the broader SIRE community.

These partnerships provide valuable recognition opportunities and a direct way to invest in our life-changing equine-assisted services for individuals and families in our community.

  • 2026 SIRE Under the Stars announcement

Thank you for your support!

This year’s SIRE Under the Tuscan Stars event brought a beautiful touch of Italy to our community. Guests enjoyed an authentic Italian dinner, Wines of Italy tasting, limoncello cocktails, live entertainment by JB Barnett, casino games, auctions, and even hat branding.

A standout moment was a special performance by William Gray, who played piano and shared an original song inspired by Whiskey, the horse he rides at SIRE.

Thanks to the generosity of our guests—and a matching‑gift challenge from Jane and Johnny Mancuso—the evening raised over $210,000 to support SIRE’s mission.

A heartfelt thank‑you to Mary Elizabeth Wise Sand & Greg Mostyn, Leslie Kuhn & Mike Sowers, and Thomas Stringer & AJ Benjys for helping make the night unforgettable.
