SPIRIT Open Equestrian Program

Thank you to everyone who has supported Evie through her recovery journey!
Since mid-February, Evie has been undergoing treatment for a serious eye injury. Thanks to the dedicated care of her veterinary team, our barn volunteers, and the generosity of supporters like you, she has made tremendous progress. As of early June, her condition is stable, and she is truly on the mend.
It has been an exhausting road for both Evie and her caretakers, but we are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. While she still has a catheter in place and requires ongoing care, we are down to a single medication, twice daily.
True to her nature, Evie has been incredibly brave throughout . She is already enjoying a gradual return to work in our lessons with the participants who adore her.
We are deeply grateful for the support that has made her treatment possible. Your generosity has helped ensure that Evie can continue serve our riders and families.

Thank you for being part of Evie's story.
