We have set up a sponsor-an-equine program! Below is a photograph and a little bit about each of our horses or donkeys. Anything you can contribute would be of great help! If you have a specific equine you would like to sponsor, please send the name of the animal along with your contribution and in exchange we will send you a 4″x6″ portrait of the horse or donkey of your specification!
