Children Visit GYNZ Equine Facility To Care For Rescued Horses

On 19th June 2025, Children visited the GYNZ equine facility for an immersive experience in the daily care of rescued horses, enjoying warm interactions with the animals.

Brushing the Horses

During the activity, under the guidance of the staff, the children groomed the horses with their own hands — gently brushing their manes and coats — and experienced the process of caring for animals up close. They learned basic horse care knowledge seriously and, through the grooming interaction, built trusting bonds with the horses while discovering the responsibility and joy of caring for another living being. This hands-on activity allowed the children to personally participate in animal care, cultivate compassion and empathy, understand the importance of animal protection, and deepen the warm connection between humans, nature, and animals.
