As some of you may know one of The Butterfly Mission's goals is to help families who have a child on the autism spectrum who also may be struggling financially.

For the fall we would like to provide a child with 5 private horseback riding lessons with My Shine. My Shine is a is an equine program serving individuals with special needs located in Melville. Your child must be 3 years of age.

If you have a true financial need and you would like for us to consider your child please send us a note telling us about yourself and your child and why you think your child would benefit. We will be accepting "applications" until Friday, September 16 and will announce who we have chosen on Monday, September 19. Please make sure to include you child's age, name, and your contact information.

You can email me directly at [email protected] and please put MY Shine in the subject line.

Don't forget to check us out on facebook and if you haven't already please "like" The Butterfly Mission!

We are so excited and so looking forward to giving someone this great
opportunity!
