SUPPORT YOUR RESCUES!


I am writing this on behalf of Harmony Meadows Equine Rescue, and for the other rescues working hard in the horse world.

We all know how bad it has been here in Georgia with the drought. Hay prices, and grain have soared, and it isn't going to stop anytime soon. It is getting to where horse owners can no longer afford the upkeep because of this drought, and selfish money hungry people in the world taking full advantage of the situation. They know who they are.

I am here to tell you that we are seeing severe affects of this. Rescue facilities are full, and can no longer take in horses in need. Many horses will starve to death, or even be shot because of this. Our hands are tied with limited funds. We need every ones help to keep these facilities going. Your donations are what helps us help the horses.

Just today I was being told of 4 horses needing a place to go to, or the owner will shoot them because he can no longer afford to feed them. While I listen to this I am trying hard to make decisions on what to do. It isn't easy; If we take them all, then how will we be able to afford to keep them all without help from the public.

I do not know what else to do, but to ask you all that can PLEASE SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL RESCUES.

Thank you for your time and support.

Hi I think what you are doing here is great. It cost a lot of money to run a rescue facility of any kind, and even harder to run one for equines. But I know that one less horse out there is suffering from abuse or starvation.
You must really care about the animals to spend so much time and money on them. Thank You for all you are doing.
