| MISSION STATEMENT Epona Horse Rescue is an organization based on the premise that all equine and other animals should live free from cruelty, neglect and abuse. This non profit charity was established for the purpose of relieving the suffering of all equine from neglect, abuse and needless death. We wish to provide them with a loving environment and a second chance to find a caring home for the rest of their days. If no home can be found, Epona will become the sanctuary for the equine. As a tool in the battle against neglect, Epona wishes to establish an educational program for owners of equine. Much of the abuse and neglect can be avoided when the owner has the proper knowledge to care for the 1) sick, 2) unhandled, or 3) aging equine . Many horses simply end up in a rescue situation due to lack of training or being too young or old to be of use to mankind. Epona is dedicated to the care and rehabilitation of unbroken or unhandled horses and to the very young and the aged equine that are often rejected. We will strive to educate the public on the fate of many of America's horses and ask for the support of the American public. Money is always a pressing need in rescue. Feed, hay, shelter and veterinary care are the largest of expenses. We also need farrier care and office support and volunteers to continue the work. Your support can help the rescue continue to rescue and rehabilitate these wonderful animals. We are a non profit under the IRS 501 (c) (3) regulations. |
