Loxahatchee, FL – May 10, 2010 – J & D Wood, Inc., one of the countries leading producers of shavings, is currently partnering with Vinceremos Therapeutic Riding Center (VTRC). The company has offered to donate a portion of their proceeds to VTRC from each bag of shavings sold within Florida.
 
This partnership was started in October of 2009, and since then J & D Wood, Inc. has raised over $3,000 to support VTRC’s mission to turn disability into ability. “J& D Wood came up with this idea all on their own and have gotten the whole horse community involved in supporting VTRC,” said VTRC Founder and Executive Director Ruth Menor.
