March 21st marked the last performance of the Playing For Others (PFO) rendition of “There’s A Monster in My Closet” at Actors Theatre Charlotte, but it’s just the beginning of a lifelong friendship between Playing For Others (playingforothers.org) and Mitey Riders. Over the last nine months, PFO has buddied up with our riders and our organization, offering a unique experience for all involved. And to culminate the season, PFO presented Mitey Riders with a donation of $15,000 at their final performance on March 21st. Tears were shed, kinds words were spoken, and memories were made that will never be forgotten.
Mitey Riders offers its sincerest gratitude to the PFO teens and advisors, who have not only changed the lives of our riders, but also the future of our organization. Look for our invited guests from PFO at our Spring Festival on May 1st and be sure to extend a hug, and hand-shake, and a Mitey big thank you!
Mitey Riders plans to use the money in support of a new therapy horse for the program, and new horse trailer — to help spread the word about Mitey Riders (and PFO!) and offer more opportunities for our riders.
