Whispering Canyons Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping at-risk youth gain confidence in themselves while learning respect, responsibility, dedication, hard-work, and discipline while learning to ride and care for horses.
A few years ago, I, Merrill Gould, was wondering what I should do with the horses that I owned. I wondered if I should sell them or give them away. As I was in the midst of this deliberation, a daughter asked me to give her riding lessons. It wasn't long before more young girls wanted to join producing the need to find more horses. This proved to be a good experience for these girls, because they learned horsemanship by having to care for their horse each afternoon. The became better students in school, more reliable and happy at home, and gained more self-confidence as they learned horsemanship skills. This increase in character and sense of responsibility is important to nurture in an at-risk girl.
