We can't express how thrilled we were to see Jonathon back in the saddle 🏇 Nearly 5 months since his accident, Jonathan has defied the odds, proving nothing can keep equestrians from our passion.

Doctors told Jonathon he should settle for a safe life out of the tack. Instead, he persevered to prove them wrong. The Kevin Babington Foundation is proud of Jonathon for his determination to heal and we wholeheartedly look forward to seeing many more photos of him back in the tack 💚🧡

The Kevin Babington Foundation is a proud sponsor of Canine Support Teams, Inc's Wag & Walk! Join us for this 30-day virtual event in support of CST’s mission to provide specially trained service dogs to people in need 🐕‍🦺👩‍🦽

This is a great opportunity for humans (and their pets!) to set goals, complete activities, and change lives. CST’s Wag & Walk raises funds to provide the gift of independence to disabled individuals and veterans who will benefit from a service dog.

There are so many deserving individuals – both right here in our local community and across the country – who depend on CST to provide high-quality, specially trained service dogs to assist with their day-to-day activities, such as going to work, turning on/off lights, retrieving items, and navigating grocery stores. We need your help to provide these life-changing dogs to people in need.

👉 For more information on how to get involved in this fundraiser, visit CST's website and social media!

Did you know? The Kevin Babington Foundation is actively involved in research pertaining to equestrian safety and injury rehabilitation. Recently, a Miami researcher was awarded $6 million in NIH grants to investigate the potential for a new novel drug to treat spinal cord injuries.🧑‍🦽🐴

Using advanced technology, this team of researchers have identified gene expression profiles of all cells existing at the site of injury. Now, they intend to leverage this information to develop drugs to potentially reverse disease signatures, targeting the site of a spinal cord injury.

As always, the Kevin Babington Foundation reminds you to suit up in a helmet and airvest every ride! 🧡💚

We are so happy to see Jonathon back in the saddle! 💚🧡08.12.2023 perhaps the greatest milestone in our journey thus far 🙏

This morning, Jonathon and Kelly’s determination to beat the odds and create their own “new normal” was validated. After nearly five months to the day of his accident, Jonathon was able to do what he was born and raised to do - ride. 

With so much uncertainty of what their future would look like in the early stages of their journey towards recovery, getting back in the saddle seemed so far away from where they stood. 

Refusing to settle for the “safe” life that the doctors had predicted, together they fought each step of the way knowing full-well that this moment would come eventually if they just kept on pushing. 

Having faced it all side by side, it was only fitting that they take this step together, Jonathon on Cache and Kelly on Shadow. 

August 12th marks not only a milestone, but the first day of our next chapter on our journey to a full recovery.

We could not have gotten to this day without the support, love, and help from our incredible friends, fellow riders, family, staff and the entire equestrian community. There are no words to describe just how grateful and thankful we are. Each and every act of kindness played a part in getting to this very moment today 🙏
