Mission
Hope for Horses is a nonprofit public benefit corporation dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating and retraining horses.
Program accomplishments
- Our achievements this year have led to the adoption of several horses, and the chance for adoption to many others. Most of the horses are off the track (OTTB) thoroughbred race horses looking for a new job, and a new human. We have seen many of these horses turn into fabulous saddle horses, great companions and even show horses in a variety of disciplines!Expenses $119,779
