Emergency Rescue Fund

Emergency Rescue Funds are the funds required to free a horse from the slaughter pipeline.  We endeavor to intercept equines before being relinquished by their owners to auction, but oftentimes these horse wind up at auction and dealers wind up with horses. Once an equine is under the control of the dealer, the only chance that horse has to escape brutal slaughter is when a rescue has the ability to pay the bail to free the horse. Until horse slaughter is banned in the US, the drive for horsemeat will cause an endless chain of horses needing rescue. This insidious industry profits on the barbaric slaughter of our American horses making it impossinle to save all equines from this insidious suffering.

Before any emergency rescue funds are used to free a horse in need, we make sure that facilities and additional funds are in place for their ongoing care. We collect funds in advance so that we can make every effort to rescue these horse before they are shipped to slaughter. When you donate to WFLF's Lifetime Equine Refuge, you make our successful campaigns possible!

Emergency Medical Fund

The Emergency Medical Fund enables us react to emergency situations. Sometimes we get calls about horses that not only need rescue but also need immediate medical attention. Some veterinarians generously give their time but they are not always available to us and funds are needed to get the right kind of medical attention on an emergency basis.

Please donate to this fund. Your donation will be used to provide emergency veterinary care to horses in need. Thank you.
