Sean Cassidy-Burgess volunteers for Rush Ranch, Access Adventure. The website for the program explains that they provide therapy, education and outdoor recreation for people living with mobility challenges, special needs children, the elderly and injured veterans.” (http://access-adventure.org/about-us/) That means that Cassidy-Burgess gets to spend a lot of time with both horses and people.

This is not his first time volunteering for something and he has his reasons for being involved in the community. Cassidy-Burgess enjoys volunteering because, he said, “it makes feel closer to his grandma.” He got into volunteering after his grandma died because he wanted to go to an volunteer and when he heard about it he called about it. Volunteering affects him both emotionally and mentally, and that helps him get through the day and keeps him close to his grandma.

Cassidy-Burgess recommends volunteering, with Rush Ranch or in another capacity, because he loves it and believes others will, too.

When he is not at the ranch, he likes to paint, eat, and play games in his free time. Sean also likes to make puns, and hang out with his brother.
