Hay Donation Drive to feed Rescue Horses & Burros

Thank you for your interest and support for our lifesaving mission to save starved and homeless horses and burros.  We are pleased to bring you this update about this important project.

A chief objective of WFLF’s Equine Rescue and Protection Program is crisis intervention for victimized equines whose lives are in imminent danger from starvation.  The Wild For Life Foundation steps up in troubled times to save dire need horses and burros who fall victim to starvation, displacement and abandonment. We are an all volunteer charity working around the clock on behalf of the horses, and during emergencies and crisis situations it’s an all-hands-on-deck operation and we literally put our lives on hold to rescue, recover and evacuate horses and burros from starvation and displacement. We provide rescue and sanctuary aid to benefit dire need horses and burros on a National level. We work in conjunction with local and state law enforcement and provide emergency & transitional housing and primary care for homeless, starved, neglected and abused equines in need.

Through GlobalGiving, with your continued kind and generous support we’ve raised $2771 through 63 donations to date. Our goal is to raise $20,000 in the next 60 days so that we can feed the rescued horses and burros served through the Wild For Life Foundation over the next four months. .  Having vital hay funds is what makes it possible for the Wild For Life Foundation to carry out our work. Without adequate hay supplies, we would be forced to turn away needy starving horses; horses that would have nowhere else to go.

As we strive to meet the needs of the vulnerable animals we serve, the ongoing influx of calls for our emergency rescue and protection services means that Wild for Life Foundation is constantly stretched in our ability to effectively respond to crisis.  Without crucial funding for hay, there have been occasions when we could not save animals in dire need.  The replenishment of WFLF’s lifesaving hay fund is crucial to fulfilling our mission to save and protect these precious innocent lives.  A lifetime of care for wild horses and burros can be up to 30 years or more per equine. With emergencies constantly needing attention across social media, yesterday’s emergencies are often forgotten and yet sanctuaries like ours continue to need help to do our lifesaving work.

Wild for Life Foundation is an all volunteer 501 c3 charity and we rely 100% on donations. We are deeply touched and encouraged by the showing of compassionate support from the caring GlobalGiving community. 

We are reaching out to spread the word about the vital need for recurring donations through our GlobalGiving platform. Through monthly gifts caring people can help secure nutritious hay for the desperate animals in need. Monthly giving is the easiest way to support this crucial lifesaving mission.  Indeed monthly gifts provide a consistent, reliable income stream that allows us to assure that these vulnerable victimized animals receive the quality hay they need and that they will never be at risk of starvation or displacement again! Your thoughtful donations are vital for the lifesaving work that we do.  Your support in sharing information about this important cause will undoubtedly help us to come closer to our goal. Will you help by sharing a link to our project page on Global Giving?

In the coming months, we’ll keep you updated about our vital hay drive project, its victories, and the many lives that will benefit from the success of this project. Thank you very much for your interest and support for all you do to make this incredible aid for at-risk horses possible.

Best wishes,
