$5 Friday

It's $5 Friday! Did you know $5 buys a bale of hay and feeds a horse for a day? So skip the coffee and help keep a senior horse fat and happy this winter by donating $5. It's amazing how fast $5 adds up.

We are fundraising for our 2017-2018 Winter Hay Fund. The hay is here and now we have to come up with the money. We had our annual playday (and new this year was the obstacle course). Proceeds from the playday fundraiser went to the 2017-2018 Winter Hay Fund.  We met our generous Match Game (Modern Woodmen graciously gave us the match game). Without the match game, and having to pay for the arena (which was $250), we made $300 and had a blast doing it. Add the match game of $500 and we are up to $800 just from the playday. Our goal is to reach $3500. We have had additional money donated and I'll add that to the tally as well. We are slowly reaching our goal and very thankful for it.

But we could still use your help. $5 might not seem like a lot but to us, it's the world. Because $5 feeds a horse for a day and $5 quickly adds up to buy more hay.

Our small Sanctuary is supported by many donors who cannot share a lot but what they share is huge and means a great deal to me.

Every donation matters, and we are grateful you have chosen to help us with our mission, "Giving each horse a dignified retirement".

Did you know, $5 buys one bale of hay and feeds a horse for a day? We have 15 horses in our Sanctuary enjoying retirement. It might not sound like a lot, but each horse gets individual care based on their needs. We are feeding hay now that October has arrived and the pastures are done. We will continue to feed hay until the end of May. Would you like to feed one of our Sanctuary horses for a day?
