W A R R A N T Y 10 | october 12, 2017 | 22nd century media active aging Guide 22ndCenturyMedia.com Tiny horses bring inspiration and love to Luther Village Luther Village knows the value of animals in keeping people, especially older adults, connected and engaged in life. In addition to the animals that live with residents in pet-friendly homes, Luther Village brings a range of animals to the 55-acre campus just north of downtown Arlington Heights. One Saturday this August, Mane in Heaven volunteers brought CinderBella, a registered miniature therapy horse, to visit Luther Village residents. More than 80 residents and their grandchildren had the opportunity to pet the adorable, little, sneaker-wearing horse. Mane in Heaven’s all-volunteer staff brings the Barrington-based nonprofit organization’s seven therapy horses to a wide range of different facilities throughout the Chicago area. These specially trained therapy animals provide comfort and joy wherever they go. Miniature therapy horses make phenomenal comfort animals and are very kind and gentle. These visits promote the human-animal bond and awaken emotional and spiritual connections between the horses and those they visit. Cinder- FINALLY! A national remodeling brand that understands our generation’s unique home improvement needs! SAVE $500 OFF ANY PROJECT!* YOUR HOME. YOUR INDEPENDENCE. OUR PASSION. Bella, who passed her Pet Partners testing in September 2015, is tall and loves to give kisses. The curious, solid black, 3-year-old horse is 100 percent Falabella, a specific breed of miniature horse bred in the 1800s in Argentina. In addition to activities like these special therapy visits, Luther Village’s independent older adults can find more traditional entertainment on campus and can take advantage of the rich cultural offerings in the area with turnkey trips to a variety of activities, sports events and arts performances. The community is abuzz with activity from fellow friendly Luther Village residents, who are happy to share knowledge and skills in a wide variety of activities and clubs, joining a broad range of outside speakers and performers brought in from across the region. Visitors to the 55-acre campus are drawn in by the range of opportunities, including the diverse types of homes.
