Introduction
The Wild Horse Rescue Center rescues and rehabilitates mustangs who have been abused and neglected. The center subsequently adopts the horses into loving homes. The funds for this project will go towards the care of the center's 40 horses, located in Mims, Florida, USA.
Report
The team works tirelessly to solve the emotional and physical traumas these horses have and once they are addressed - the horses are socialized and trained so they can be ridden and rehomed. This project has the ability to help thousands of wild horses as they are able to rescue a new mustang as soon as a space becomes available after rehoming others.
Please remember the little by little campaign in April 3-7 where if you donate up to $50, GlobalGiving will match it at 50%.

Report
Aside from protecting and rehabilitating a number of mustangs, the bigger impact also includes all the educational work the centre does to bring attention and knowledge to the plight of the American mustang - a cause very few are familiar with. The team works tirelessly to solve the emotional and physical traumas these horses have and once they are addressed - the horses are socialized and trained so they can be ridden and rehomed. It costs $10 to feed a mustang for 3 days.

Introduction
There are currently tens of thousands of mustangs in need of rescue in the US and in Florida the problem is worse than ever. People buy these horses for a very low price from auctions - while the horse is still completely wild. This results in the animals becoming neglected due to the lack of education and capacity to train them, which is why we work to intervene in these situations to properly rehabilitate and rehome these mustangs, to minimise neglect and abuse

Dear Supporters,
Since COVID-19 and the impact across the United States our project had to let our international volunteers leave and return home, while this is essential our horses had been funded largely through international volunteers and while the USA is now re-opening to internationals we know it is still going to be a while before we ever return to the pre pandemic days.
Our team has been trying hard with running multiple local events and fundraisers so we can continue supporting all 50 horses currently in our rehab program but it is a tough time! We have run multiple events and have lots more planned before the end of the year.
Every donation is now more important than ever and today is #givingtuesday which means if you donate again today we have a strong likelihood of winning additional match funding from GlobalGiving.
Every penny counts to helping this stunning wild horses survive another day, hurray there is only a few hours left
Thank You,
Diana
