If you are unable to provide a home for a horse at this time, you can show your love with a gift of money, time or supplies. Indiana Horse Rescue is run completely by volunteers. Without your support in the form of adoptions and donations IHR would not exist. IHR will continue to do everything within its means to help prevent such suffering--but we cannot do it alone. Good intentions are the foundation of this charity, but caring for horses requires funding on a day by day basis. IHR and our network of foster farms can only do so much on a limited budget. If you can toss a few coins in the hat, you can rest assured that you are helping a good cause. Your donation could make the difference between life and death for a horse, literally. Thanks to those who have already joined the IHR family and welcome to those of you who are just getting to know us.

Frequently-Asked Questions About Making a Donation

Where exactly does the money go?
Horse care, and caring for the property so it is always available for the continued care of horses in need. The property is owned by Animal Protection Coalition, Inc.; we hope the rescue continues for years after we are gone. Hundreds of horses have been rescued, rehabilitated, some even purchased to come to the rescue, most are then available for adoption, there are a few residents that remain with Indiana Horse Rescue permanently. This facility is run completely by volunteers. There are no salaries and no paid employees.

Through the cooperation of local businesspeople and help from volunteers, we're able to keep expenses as low as possible, but providing for these animals is still costly. Here are a few examples of costs for just one horse . . .

Grain for one week: $12	Basic farrier trimming: $35 every 6 weeks
Hay for one month: $50	Annual shots: $45
Winter blanket: $55	Annual Deworming costs $75 or more
