An absolute favourite of mine on social media and another 'must follow' to warm your heart.
Gentle Carousel's teams of tiny horses visit over 25,000 adults and children each year inside hospitals, hospice programs, and with families, veterans and first responders who have experienced traumatic events. From Sandy Hook Elementary School / Newtown, CT to the tornado survivors of Moore, OK, those dealing with the Charleston and Orlando shootings to child trafficking victims in Washington D.C., these tiny horses bring their special love where it is needed most.
