 Kathy Castro and Santana |
The Santana Center's mission is to to promote, encourage and foster healthy interactions between horses and humans through education, training and outreach activities. The Santana Center was incorporated as a nonprofit organization in Rhode Island in November 2004. It was named for a 14 year old saddlebred horse, Santana Satin & Gold, owned by Kathy Castro, president and founder of the Santana Center. Santana suffered a traumatic back injury while playing in the pasture and had to be euthanized. Kathy learned through interactions with her horse not only about being a horse "teacher," but also about true partnerships |

The Santana Center was founded to help encourage the relationship between horses and humans. This includes sponsoring classes on horse care, equine-assisted therapy, leadership and personal development. Our ultimate goal is to see all horses receiving the best care from informed horse enthusiasts who are engaged in a true relationship with horses. With this in mind, we plan to arrange seminars and workshops on horses, horse care, training; facilitate equine assisted professional development; arrange opportunities for schools and other children's organizations to incorporate horses into their curriculum; rehabilitation of rescue horses. Donations are greatly appreciated and can be given in a variety of ways. Click here to see how you can donate through buying and other ways to help our organization.
