It&#8217;s a community hub that fosters the bond between horses and humans. We open our doors weekly to homeschool groups, assisted living groups, church groups, and volunteers.<\/p>\n<p>Our mission is deeply personal. Our founder&#8217;s son was diagnosed with a genetic degenerative disease at the age of 6 and she saw firsthand the transformative power of hippo-therapy. At Zorro&#8217;s, we are committed to providing other children with special needs the same opportunity for therapeutic and rehabilitative treatment with horses that have the potential to transform their lives, helping with coordination, balance, and strength.<\/p>\n<p>We have recently launched a hippo-therapy program and forged a valuable partnership with Sue Soha, an experienced physical therapist and hippo-therapy instructor\u2014 https:\/\/specialsettingspt.com\/hippotherapy. You can learn more about our program launch at https:\/\/bit.ly\/ZorroHippoTherapy. <\/p>\n<p>Grant funding is necessary for the growth of our program. With your support, we can dedicate more personalized time to training our hippo-therapy horses. This will significantly expand our program&#8217;s reach and impact, allowing us to serve more special needs children.<\/p>\n<p>Total Project Budget: $20,000<\/p>\n<p>Other Funding <br \/>\nSources For The Project (Committed &amp; Potential): Donations from fundraisers, family foundations, and future grant opportunities<\/p>\n<p>Project Duration: 9 months annually<br \/>\nGeographical Area Served: Metro Atlanta Surrounding Communities<br \/>\nAge Group To Be Served: 5 &#8211; 15 years old<\/p>\n<p>Contact Information<\/p>\n<hr size='1' noshade='noshade' \/>\n<p>Contact Prefix (Mr,Mrs etc.): Mrs.<br \/>\nContact First Name: Jessica<br \/>\nContact Last Name: Maney<br \/>\nContact Title: Board Member<br \/>\nContact Phone: 404-782-9448<br \/>\nContact Email: jessica@zorroscrossing.org<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hermanowski Family Foundation Initial Request Form Organization Name: Zorro&#8217;s Crossing Legal Name (if Different): Also Known As: Mailing Address: 8655 Sardis Road City: Chattahoochee Hills State: Georgia Postal Code: 30268 Main Phone: 404-536-1448 Main Fax: Organization Website: www.zorroscrossing.org Employer ID Number: 88-2458063 Organization Tax Status: 501 c 3 Proposal Information Today&#8217;s Date: February 24, 2025 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6941","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-grants"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/hermanowskifoundation.org\/members\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6941","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/hermanowskifoundation.org\/members\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/hermanowskifoundation.org\/members\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/hermanowskifoundation.org\/members\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/hermanowskifoundation.org\/members\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6941"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/hermanowskifoundation.org\/members\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6941\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6942,"href":"http:\/\/hermanowskifoundation.org\/members\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6941\/revisions\/6942"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/hermanowskifoundation.org\/members\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6941"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/hermanowskifoundation.org\/members\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6941"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/hermanowskifoundation.org\/members\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6941"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
