	EMERGENCY FUNDRAISING ... TRANSPORT NEEDS... Please consider donating to help us replace our truck! We have purchased a used F250 diesel we feel will serve us well for a long time to come for a great price. We have a $5,000 grant, and $1,7000 so far (as of 6/29/09) and need to raise $1650 additional. Without the truck, we cannot rescue horses, transport for emergency care, or compete at the Midwest challenge...every $5 makes a difference. Please help us to help the horses!

We cannot begin to offer enough thanks to all our you, including our morning feeding helpers, who come one day EVERY week. All our tireless helpers are always willing to lend a hand -- or a truck, a strong back, computer savvy, or anything else needed.

HORSE SLAUGHTER: Our Articles and Links pages have information on the practice of live horse slaughter for human consumption. Our president supports the Federal bill to end horse slaughter, but respects that others may not. Most of all, we encourage everyone to be informed, to make their own decisions, and let their voices be heard by our government.
