Help Us Keep Horses with Their Owners

In 2020, we launched our Horse Owners Assistance Program. The purpose was to provide short term assistance with hay and grain to help horse owners experiencing a temporary financial hardship. Our goal was to keep horses with the people who loved them.

For the past five years, we’ve been doing just that: letting owners keep the horses they love when they’re experiencing a job loss, death in the family, unexpected medical bills, etc.

This year, the need is greater than before. The economic hardships faced by many right now, job furloughs, job loss, etc. means more and more people need our help. The government shutdown is also impacting horse owners, and we’ve started to receive request for help from federal employee families. But we’ve nearly depleted our funds for 2025.

Your donation may make the difference between someone being able to feed – and keep – their beloved horse and that same person having to surrender their horse to a rescue. I don’t want to see anyone giving up their beloved horses due to a short term financial problem.
