Our Partnership with Gamilah Unbridled
At YELO, we want all youth to be able to participate, that's why we partner with the non-profit Gamilah Unbridled. Gamilah Unbridled provides scholarships to kids in need and helps bring rescue horses into the program. "We believe horses heal people better than people heal people."
Providing Access
Gamilah Unbridled works to provide access to horses & liberty for kids who otherwise might not be able. Stay tuned for more information!
Connecting Rescue Horses
Gamilah Unbridled has a passion to show that rescue horses can be phenomenal partners. They have completed several programs focused on showing the power of liberty and how it can transform some of the most challenging horses.
​
They're now working to connect rescues that need a home with members who are looking for their next equine partner. More details coming soon!
Why Rescues?
Helping Non-Ridden Horses Find Homes
We have found there are many people who want to learn liberty because they either don not want to or cannot ride.
​
We have also found there are many horses, especially at rescues, that cannot be ridden due to a variety of reasons. Often, these horses are viewed as "less than" because they cannot be riding partners. We feel that non-ridden horses have just as much talent and purpose as ridden horses.
​
By partnering with YELO, we hope to give these horses the opportunity to showcase their unique abilities through liberty. Ultimately, helping to find forever homes for more of these horses.
The Connection Between Kids and Rescues
Gamilah Unbridled works to provide access to horses and liberty to underprivileged kids through rescue horses.
​
Rescues have often been through a lot of challenges in life, just like some people. Youth who have been through struggles can often connect and relate to the rescue horses on a deeper level, because they could have gone through similar experiences.
​
We always say, horses heal people, better than people heal people. We strive to give these horses and kids the opportunity to connect and heal with each other.
Rescue Horses Are Not "Less Than"
Society often devalues rescues as not as talented and capable because they are many times not "well" bred, and raised horses with papers.
​
We wholeheartedly disagree. We've worked with some of the most challenging rescues horses in the country and have watched them transform into phenomenal riding and liberty partners.
​
We have a team of rescue horses that work together at liberty. Our goal is to showcase how capable these horse are and help more people look to rescues when they're ready for an equine partner.
Gamilah Unbridled is a non-profit that helps provide liberty horsemanship education to underprivileged youth and rescue horses.
