GallopNYC is one of New York City’s most rewarding and unique volunteering experiences.

You'll spend your time outdoors, alongside our horses, helping children, adults with disabilities, veterans, and seniors do things they've been told they couldn't do. Walk. Speak. Find their balance. Build trust.

No riding experience or horse background needed — we train you when you arrive. All you bring is your time and your willingness to show up. We rely on hundreds of volunteers each season to support lessons, care for our herd, and keep the barn welcoming. Whether you can come weekly or just occasionally, there's a role for you.
