Help us Build a Stable Future!
Detroit Horse Power partners with horses to create transformative opportunities for Detroit’s youth. Through hands-on riding and horse care, young people develop perseverance, empathy, confidence, and responsibility — skills that carry far beyond the stable. 2026 is our biggest year yet with the grand opening of our Urban Equestrian Center, the largest in the USA.
Detroit Horse Power is making a measurable difference in the lives of Detroit’s young people, and the impact is only growing.
- 500+ Youth Served – Detroit youth have participated in free summer camps and after-school programs since 2015.
- 14 Acres – Our upcoming urban equestrian center will be built on a 14-acre site, the largest in the nation.
- 5 Core Life Skills – Perseverance, empathy, responsible risk-taking, confidence, and self-control, taught through horses.
Horses teach kids the skills that lead to success in school and life — and Detroit Horse Power makes that access free for every participant.
The next generation of Detroit leaders is waiting. Your support, whether time, talent, or treasure, helps ensure every young person in Detroit has the opportunity to experience the transformative power of horses.
