Animals can play a huge role in bringing healing, calm, learning, and living in the moment.

We are so proud to partner with five special animals and their human handlers.

All year Lauren with Darwin/Einstein and Rebecca with Gryffin made monthly visits to HKHS.

Cathy and Piper visited HKMS each and every week!

Alli and Tomas are thrilled to connect with kids all year through Be You at the Barn/Pony Kids, community events, and equine therapy when needed.

Thank you everyone! We appreciate you and how much you care about HK youth. ❤️🐶🐴
