Located in the award-winning Carrollwood Players Theatre comes a new showcase for Equusolutions, an organization that pairs rescued horses with military women suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder due to (MST) Military Sexual Trauma.

On Saturday, January 24, 2015 at 1:30pm, Life Amplified EMPOWERS did what we do best – educated the community, entertained our patrons and raised funds for a nonprofit organization helping female military soldiers through equine therapy. We raised over $500 for Equusolutions and a HORSE!

Life Amplified PAWS UP

With the new venue of the award-winning Carrollwood Players Theatre comes a new showcase for a well-deserving nonprofit that has been hit with devestating news. On April 19, 2014, an arsonist destroyed Animal Coalition of Tampa’s new facility. Not only was the entire community clinic destroyed, including all of medical equipment and supplies, but the fire took the lives of 3 of their cats, Jazz, Boy, and Mama who called the clinic home. It also left several employees without jobs.

On Saturday, September 13, 2014 at 1:30pm, Life Amplified PAWS UP did what we do best – educate the community, entertain our patrons and raise over $500 in funds for a nonprofit organization in need of our help to rebuild. In the meantime, if you want to help ACT, please donate.
