Tiny Horses Making a Big Difference
Gentle Carousel was called in to comfort the survivors and first responders of the tragedies at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, South Carolina, the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida and the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. They helped the tornado survivors of Moore, Oklahoma, victims of the fires in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, families in the aftermath of hurricanes and families and first responders after the condo collapse in Surfside, Florida.
