At Joe’s Kids, children with special needs receive physical, occupational, and speech therapy, as well as dyslexia therapy and tutoring. These comprehensive services support growth in areas such as gross and fine motor skills; sensory processing; self-care; cognitive and social development; verbal and non-verbal communication; feeding and swallowing; and reading and writing – empowering each child to thrive at home, in school, and in life. Joe’s Kids is a non-profit organization that is able to bill Medicaid and commercial insurances for services; however, those amounts do not cover all of the operating costs of providing services. Donations will assist families with the financial burden of caring for their special children.
Magical Meadows exists to provide healing for those with physical, cognitive, or emotional challenges. Programs are designed to provide clients and their families with a safe and relaxing atmosphere so that they can experience the healing power of horses. Therapeutic horseback riding services are offered to the following groups:
Children with special needs
At-risk children and teenagers
Adults with mental or physical disabilities
Veterans and first-responders through the Warriors Mount Up, a free peer-led program
While Magical Meadows is a non-profit organization that charges modest rider fees, the fees only cover a portion of the operating costs. Donations allow Magical Meadows to afford the cost of maintaining the land and facilities as well as caring for the horses.
Please make checks payable to Warsaw First UMC, and write “Joe’s Kids” or “Magical Meadows” on the memo line of your check.
