Celebrating 95 Years & 90 Years

This special evening celebrates the legacies of two iconic Nova Scotian organizations.

For 95 years, Easter Seals Nova Scotia has worked to create opportunities and remove barriers for people with disabilities through accessible recreation, mobility supports, and programs that promote independence and inclusion.

For 90 years, the Halifax Lancers have been dedicated to building better lives by making equestrian experiences accessible to people of all ages and abilities.

Together, these organizations are celebrating the impact of inclusion and the possibilities that come when people have the opportunity to participate, connect, and thrive.

Supporting Inclusive Equestrian Programs

The soirée also highlights the connection between Easter Seals Nova Scotia and the Halifax Lancers through Learn to Ride and therapeutic riding programs.

These inclusive equestrian programs give children and youth with disabilities opportunities to experience horseback riding while building confidence, strength, and independence.

Your support helps these programs continue to provide meaningful experiences and opportunities for people of all abilities.

Join us for an evening of celebration while supporting inclusive programs in our community.
