Program seeks hay donations to maintain horses through the recession

Published: 16 April 2011
NORTH COAST, Calif. – Saferhorse.com, a nonprofit organization dedicated to rehoming displaced horses and educating the public concerning horse welfare, manages a hay assistance program in Lake and Mendocino counties.


This program offers temporary assistance to horse owners who find themselves in a financial

crisis, unable to provide adequate feed for their horses.


As horse owners lose their jobs, and homes fall into foreclosure, it becomes increasingly difficult for them to hang on to the family horses.


With few viable options, these horses often end up at the auction yard and are then sent to Mexico slaughter houses.


This recession will end but many horses may be lost forever.


The Saferhorse Hay Assistance Program, funded by public donations can help a family through tough times.


To make a donation to this program, visit Rainbow Ag, Mendocino Farm Supply, J.D. Redhouse or Highway 20 Feed and tell them you want to contribute to the Donate a Bale Program.


Guidelines and application forms for the hay assistance program can be found on the home page of www.saferhorse.com.
