Honoring Percy: Help Veterans Equine Therapeutic Services' 501©3 equine team member Percy move to a relaxing and well-deserved retirement!
Dear Friends and Supporters,
Heroes come in all shapes and sizes. Meet Percy, an incredible horse who has dedicated nearly half a decade of his life to serving our nation's heroes – the U.S. military veterans, active duty service members and their families with therapeutic and educational experiences. Percy's story is one of unwavering dedication, empathy, and support. He has helped over a hundred VETSCT participants navigate the harrowing challenges of post-traumatic stress (PTS), combat trauma, military sexual trauma, traumatic brain injury (TBI), and moral trauma.
Percy's Noble Service:
Percy's journey began when he answered a different kind of call to duty, the call to serve those who had selflessly offered their lives for our country. He stepped into the lives of veterans burdened by the invisible wounds of war by offering them solace, understanding, and a unique bond that only an animal like Percy could provide. Through his gentle presence and intuitive nature, Percy has helped these heroes find hope, healing, and strength to carry on living fulfilling lives.
Though out his service as a horse at Veteran Equine Therapeutic Services, Percy became a steadfast companion, a symbol of unwavering support, and a shoulder to lean on for those who struggled with their inner demons. He carried their emotional burdens with grace and never once asked for recognition or reward. Percy's service was characterized by honor, integrity, and an unspoken understanding of the sacrifices made by these brave men and women.
Percy's Well-Deserved Retirement:
Now, it's our turn to give back to Percy, the equine hero who has given so much to those who needed it the most. After a dedicated career of service, it's time for Percy to retire and enjoy his well-deserved golden years. Our team have found a beautiful retirement home for him right here in Connecticut, where he will have the opportunity to relax, graze in lush pastures, and live out the rest of his days in comfort.
How You Can Make a Difference:
To make Percy's retirement dream a reality, we are seeking your support to help Veterans Equine Therapeutic Services raise a total of $4,000. This amount will cover Percy's retirement home fees which include food, board, and veterinary bills. Helping Percy retire will pay honor to all the heroes he has helped during his illustrious career.
Your Impact:
Your contribution, no matter how big or small, will go a long way in ensuring that Percy receives the retirement he deserves. By donating to Percy's retirement fund, you are not only helping him enjoy his well-earned relaxation but also honoring the countless veterans and active-duty service members he has supported over the years.
Conclusion:
Percy's story is a testament to the incredible bond between humans and animals, and the profound impact they can have on each other's lives. Let's come together as a community to show our appreciation for Percy's service and dedication!
Please join us in honoring Percy, the unsung hero, by contributing to his retirement fund. Together, we can safeguard Percy's twilight years and help fill them with the same comfort and tranquility that he provided to our nation's heroes.
Thank you for your support, and for helping us give Percy the retirement he so richly deserves.
