Specific Need
As with dogs and cats in this country, there is an over population of equines. Indiscriminate breeders and uneducated owners are the main cause of neglect cases involving equines. This creates a huge burden on rescue organizations such as the Equine Rescue League (ERL).
The ERL educates the general public as well as civic, school and troop groups on how to recognize and prevent equine cruelty or neglect. It is a goal for us to teach proper care of equines to the entire horse community.
Thank you for your support.
Mission
The Equine Rescue League is an organization that supports the responsible use of working, sport and pleasure horses, ponies, donkeys and mules. Our goals are to prevent the neglect or abuse of any equine, to offer educational programs to the community and to provide rehabilitation and adoption services for those animals in need of our services.
Profile
Over the past 33 years, the Equine Rescue League has successfully rescued thousands of equines. The majority of those animals are adopted into loving, qualified homes. The Equine Rescue League will continue to operate and educate at their shelter, Promise Kept Farm. The Equine Rescue League has been verified with the GFAS (Global Federation of Animal Sanctuaries) since 2013. We have an experienced, well educated group of staff and volunteers to carry out this endeavor.
