2018 Annual Appeal

Happy holidays loyal friends and supporters. We wholeheartedly appreciate all you’ve given to our organization this past year. This year’s annual appeal dollars will help us care for and re-home our latest rescue effort. We are looking to raise $3,500.00 for Meadow and Confetti who lost their longtime home. Their guardians, an elderly man and woman from Long Island could no longer keep them. Their owner is dying and will not pass on without knowing his horses, (in many ways) his children would not end up at auction. That is when North Shore Horse Rescue and Sanctuary received a call for help and stepped in to ensure that Meadow a quarter horse mare, and Confetti a miniature Appaloosa gelding were in a trustworthy place. They are adjusting to their new way of life with us. Your donation will help to sustain all aftercare needs, including feed hay, bedding, supplements and any unforeseen veterinary care for this pair. Please know that past contributions aided the rescue of 42 horses over the years. As you might be aware of our Equine therapy program with Heart2Heart is paving the way as a credible mental health alternative. Our herd of rescues has become the most unusual compassionate therapists, in the most unexpected ways. A little-known fact is that horses have an incredible aptitude towards humans improving their mood and well-being. As 2018 comes to a close, the Board of Directors, staff of mighty volunteers and our herd send whinnies, neighs and the light of the season thanking you for your caring generosity. We could not do this work without your support. Remember, no donation is too small and all donations are tax deductible. Donate at our website: www.northshorehorserescue.org, FaceBook Go Fund Me Campaign and Twitter. Heart felt thanks!
