Do you have a heart for our neighbors who are experiencing homelessness? Join Nashville’s robust network of community leaders who are working together to ensure everyone receives the care and respect they deserve. By joining Colby’s Army as an Outreach Partner, you’ll be meeting with us on Tuesday mornings to combine forces before going out into the community to provide services to individuals experiencing homelessness and resource scarcity.

Ideally, you'd be able to provide a vehicle and we’ll give you a list of locations to check up on our friends - with whom you can take requests and discuss current needs, and we’ll work together to find solutions! If you're unable to drive your own car but still want to get involved, please let us know and we'll make it work.

We at Colby’s Army care about all living things. Truly care. If you care too then you can become a soldier in our "army". Colby's Army offers Therapeutic Riding and Equine Assisted Learning on-site in Ashland City as well as support for those in West Nashville who are experiencing homelessness. Ultimately, our mission is to help people with life challenges through outreach and interactions with animals and nature.

To volunteer with Colby's Army, you must first complete a brief online training and come visit our facility for a tour. We look forward to hearing from you!
