38 Standardbreds in Jeopardy
Tax deductible
Thirty-eight Standardbreds are waiting with hope to be spared the chutes that will send them to their end. They are tagged and weighed ready to ship to slaughter in Canada and Mexico. The Standardbred Retirement Foundation (SRF) is asking for help for them to prevent this atrocity. Some are just a day away from loading, a few have until Wednesday.
In NC, PA, NJ, and OK, TX, NY, all but a few are emaciated, aged, and injured. One is already 30 years old, he has an injury to his eye and his age shows everywhere on his body; he is the son of Amity Chef. Most had days on the track followed by years of pulling heavy farm equipment, and or served as transportation. In addition to the cost to release them from these "kill pens", where they are held before shipping, each horse needs a safe place to go, a home.
This is a large undertaking for SRF which already has 393 Standardbreds in need of homes, but they will do all they can to help if kind and generous people will change the destiny for these horses. What is needed are tax deductible gifts to pay for each, ship them to safety and for quarantine, rehabilitation, boarding and a home. To offer a home please contact us at [phone redacted].
SRF asks you to share our fundraiser to others as well to encourage help.
