Pediatric Patients from Joseph M. Sanzari Children’s Hospital Find Respite and Fun at Pony Power Therapies
Hackensack Meridian Hackensack University Medical Center Foundation and Pony Power Therapies came together for its eighth year to support pediatric patients through the magic of ponies, horses and nature.
Young patients receiving care for serious and chronic illnesses at Hackensack Meridian Children’s Health at Joseph M. Sanzari’s Children’s Hospital participated in therapeutic, nature-based, riding sessions funded in part by the Susan Zabransky Hughes Memorial Run.
In partnership with Hackensack University Medical Center Foundation, patients from Joseph M. Sanzari Children’s Hospital are able to visit Pony Power’s 13 acres of property in the foothills of the Ramapo Mountains every year. Patient visits to Pony Power Therapies are made possible by Hackensack University Medical Center Foundation and the Run for Sue Committee, which oversees the annual planning of the Susan Zabransky Hughes Memorial Run.
