Volunteer with Rescued Horses in South Africa – A Life-Changing Experience for Horse Lovers

 

Are you a passionate horse lover looking for a rewarding adventure? Join our Horse Rescue and Rehabilitation Project on South Africa’s stunning Wild Coast and make a real impact in the lives of abused, neglected, and injured horses.


As a volunteer, you'll help care for a herd of around 30 rescued horses, many of whom are learning to trust humans again. From daily feeding, grooming, and stable care to supporting rehabilitation programs and helping with groundwork, your efforts ensure each horse receives the love and attention it deserves. No matter your experience level, you'll be matched with horses and tasks that suit your skills and comfort—making this the perfect horse volunteering opportunity for beginners and seasoned riders alike.


You’ll also get involved with our beach and bush trail rides, which not only offer breathtaking views of the Indian Ocean, lagoons, and coastal forests but also generate vital income to support the rescue center. Imagine horseback riding on the beach, spotting dolphins and whales, and ending your day with a sunset over the ocean.


In your free time, explore the local area, go on safari, hike through nature reserves, or simply relax and live like a local. By joining us, you’re not just going on an adventure—you’re giving horses a second chance at life.


Volunteer in South Africa with horses and turn your love for animals into meaningful action.

Even though it started with the horses, the farm is host to chickens, donkeys, pigs, peacocks, geese, sheep, and the occasional owl.  Volunteers that stay for a longer period of time and have some experience can work with some of the younger horses.

New Benefit Shirt

 Who's ready for a new Cintsa Horses shirt? 

This one was inspired by a particular tall, dark, and handsome guy! You can pick from a hoodie, sweatshirt, or tee shirt and each style has a couple of color options to choose from. 


After production costs, all profits go directly to the farm! Now is the time to send some love and support to South Africa! 


This batch will run until November 11 before it gets printed and shipped out worldwide, arriving around December 1. Also, if you missed it the first time, the original design will also be available!
