Founded in 1986, Personal Ponies has grown into a national organization involving hundreds of volunteers throughout the country.  Our Mission is to make magic in children's lives, to bring smiles and joy in a most unusual way.

There is something special that happens between a pint-sized pony and a child. There is " magic " of this little animal that speaks to a child in its own way!

In 1994, a call from Marianne Alexander inquiring about miniature sheep brought NH into the world of PPL. It also brought pony pals into the PPL world, as ponies are never placed alone; they are always placed with another pony or a companion.
