How to Sponsor a Horse

The relationship between humans and horses dates back hundreds of years. Unfortunately, sometimes horses are in situations that are abusive or neglectful. Some horses may even be at risk of slaughter. Horse rescue programs exist to care for these horses in a safe and kind environment. These programs usually rely on outside funding for their operation. By sponsoring a horse in a rescue program, you provide financially for its daily care. You might also receive a package of materials and certifications about your horse.
