Our Core Values

  • Horses are for everyone.

    Horses have been indispensable helpers in civilization, transportation, war, and sport for centuries. But in recent American history, horses have become tools of elite hobbyists, inaccessible to many who lack wealth, transportation, and the luxury of downtime. When people from underrepresented populations do find their way into the horse world, they often face judgment and bias.

    We believe that horses are for everyone and strive to find ways to create accessibility. We connect with a diversity of Indianapolis communities, partner with farms within 30 minutes of the city, and provide plentiful scholarships.

  • Cultural Humility

    We believe that approaching living beings with curiosity, openness, and respect is essential.

    Relationships > Success

    Equity > Profit

    Inclusion > Comfort

    We recognize that we will be imperfect and commit to being humbly open to feedback.
