Mission
OUR PURPOSE IS TO ROUND UP, CARE AND REHABILITATE WILD HORSES DYING FROM STARVATION.
Program accomplishments
- The last several years have brought increasing hardship to America's Wild Horses. There has been an increase in the roundups, which brought in more wild horses needing help. This last year we have seen larger numbers of starving wild horses that need rehabbing and re homing, as well as hundreds of foals rounded up that needed to be rescued.As our outreach grows and public awareness increases, we have been able to find loving, adoptive home for many of these rescued, wild mustangs. Our number of rescued horses continues to grow with the support garnered by the increased awareness, and we struggle everyday to save as many of them as we can. This year saw an increase in the number of rescued "starving seniors" as well as more pregnant mares and mares with babies by their side.We continue to maintain our herd, and to educate more people every day about the plight of America's Icon, the Wild Horse.Expenses $385,001
