PROTECT STORM DRAINS<br />
Just one quart of motor oil can ruin the quality of 250,000 gallons of<br />
water. Decomposing leaves and grass clippings can cause large amounts<br />
of algae to grow which depletes the oxygen level in the water and can<br />
lead to fish kills. The blowing, sweeping or dumping of grass clippings<br />
and other pollutants down the storm drain is against Texas State Law<br />
punishable by a fine of $5,000 for each offense.<br />

SIRE, HOUSTON’S THERAPEUTIC<br />
EQUESTRIAN CENTERS<br />
Nothing else can compare with therapy on horseback.<br />
Equine-assisted activities improve physical balance<br />
and coordination, mental acuity, emotional stability<br />
and social interactions. At SIRE, we see miracles<br />
on horseback happen every day. The work of our<br />
dedicated volunteers helps guarantee that children<br />
and adults with disabilities in the Greater Houston<br />
Area will have the programs they need to live longer,<br />
healthier, more productive lives.<br />
In addition to their weekly work in the arena, many of<br />
our volunteers donate their time and talents at fundraising<br />
events such as our annual Ride-A-Thon and the<br />
yearly Trailblazers Luncheon. Volunteers are on hand<br />
during the NARHA on-site certification and annual<br />
SIRE Show-Off and volunteers are vital to our Clients’<br />
successes at the Top Hands Horse Show, during the<br />
Houston Rodeo and competition at the regional and<br />
state Special Olympics. Therapeutic horseback riding<br />
creates a bond of success between the rider and their<br />
horse. Volunteers are their own personal cheering<br />
section and the instructor is their mentor and coach.<br />
Clients become more empowered and better equipped<br />
to fully live their lives, each day.<br />
To volunteer, please call one of our arenas and ask to<br />
speak with a volunteer coordinator. SIRESpring, call<br />

FOSTER CHILDREN: PREPARATION<br />
FOR ADULT LIVING (PAL)<br />
When foster children reach age 18, they are considered independent.<br />
That’s difficult for kids who have been wards of the state, with necessities<br />
arranged by caseworkers with state funds. Now they’ll have to figure out<br />
how to organize themselves and make their money last a whole month.<br />
Fortunately, Child protective Services offers them a program to help prepare<br />
for independence: Preparation for Adult Living (PAL). The year-long course<br />
culminates in an all-day workshop hosted by the National Council for Jewish<br />
Women (NCJW). The course is held at Junior Achievement’s BizTown, using<br />
computer kiosks sponsored by local businesses. Want to help with PAL or<br />
other NCJW programs that help change lives with hands-on community<br />
service? Contact info@ncjwhouston.org or see www.ncjwhouston.org.<br />
