Can you help on Giving Tuesday?



Thanksgiving is a time to consider things we are thankful for during the year and EqWBR is deeply grateful that with your donations and support we have been able directly help 26 horses and indirectly many others.

This is the time of year when people consider making year end donations to their favorite organizations and helping those charities whose missions they support.  Along with Black Friday, Buy Where You Live Saturday, Cyber Monday, the first Tuesday after Thanksgiving has been deemed "Giving Tuesday".

On this Giving Tuesday  Dec. 3, 2013, we ask that you consider making a donation to Equine WellBeing Rescue Inc., to help us continue our mission of helping horses in need and supporting those in our permanent care including Autumn, Danny, Gwen, Liam, Maverick, Max and Tucker.

This year we have been blessed to help:
-Maverick 25+ year old was saved from Riverside Animal Services abandoned and emaciated, now a permanent resident.
-Liam a baby saved from Mike's Auction needing hernia surgery, now a resident till a little older.
-Max 30 year old saved from Riverside Animal Services in coordination with Baker Ranch Equine Rescue, abandoned, emaciated and now a permanent resident at EqWBR.
-Ashley, Noche, Dixie and Titan (Tennessee Walking Horses) all now adopted out to new homes.

-Assisted Northern NV Equine Rescue with a grant for Vandi to get hernia surgery.
-In our spare time we helped network to find homes for Savannah, Karley and many others.

As you can see it has been a busy year and donated funds have gone to provide for many horses in serious need of assistance.  Your donations are desperately needed to continue providing for our current residents and to assist others horses, who through no fault of their own are in a situation of need.
