Project Report | Dec 28, 2017
Rescued Navajo wild horses need your help today!

By Katia Louise | Director

Wild for Life Foundation (WFLF) urgently needs to find an alternate location for its rescue Navajo mustangs who have been impacted by the ongoing Southern California wildfires.

The wildfires have placed a severe strain on local animal charities like WFLF, at a time when resources for rescue animals are already tapped.

Now in our 10th year of operation, the Wild For Life Foundation has long leased equine properties in Southern California’s rural communities to serve and house at-risk horses from California and from across the country. 

Our nonprofit and refuge was recently told to move our rescue animals and now the time is upon us. Unfortunately, a property owner in where we currently house over 40 rescued wild and domestic horses and burros in S. Cal., has recently begun to repurpose the land to serve commercial chicken producers.  These and factors have placed undue hardships on our charity leaving us with nowhere to relocate with our rescued horses.

Suddenly we’re at ground zero. Even locations that might normally be available to us have not been an option because of the Southern California wildfires. Everyone we know has their hands’ full housing homeless wildfire victims whose barns and farms have burned to the ground.

Competing demands for pasture space by commercial livestock interests and the need to turn a profit by agricultural Lessor’s make it extremely difficult for a small but effective charity on a tight budget like WFLF to carry out our life saving mission without having property of our own.

The Wild For Life Foundation (WFLF) has stepped up on numerous occasions over the years to successfully save the lives of 100's of horses and burros from across the country. Ironically, now WFLF horses now need special help.

These horses have already been through so much. Please help if you can so that WFLF is able to relocate as needed and provide the continuum of quality care and protection these special equine deserve. 

HOW TO HELP: DONATE AND SHARE!
Share this update!
Make a lifesaving donation through GlobalGiving

If you haven't already done so, you can help even more by setting up a monthly gift. Your monthly donation will help assure quality care and housing for these well deserving rescue horses now and for these crucial months to come.

OTHER WAYS TO HELP:
WFLF is also seeking private sanctuary partnerships with private land owners who are willing to give these animals a place to call their forever safe haven home where they can roam, play and be safe. If you have a farm, ranch, land, barn/ house in need of purpose, you can make a difference!

Wild for Life Foundation’s Navajo Horse Rescue and Recovery Mission (NHRRM) is a lifesaving program which provides emergency rescue and placement services for wild horses, burros and orphan foals that have been saved from roundups, slaughter and other forms of cruelty. They come to us traumatized, shattered, desperate and betrayed. With us they have found love, quality care, safety, compassion, dignity, trust, hope and a new beginning. 

Wild for Life Foundation is an all volunteer 501 c3 charity and we rely 100% on donations. Your continued kind support enables us save lives and to provide crucial veterinary medical care, nutritional hay shelter and rehabilitation. 

Please help make a difference for these precious innocent horses by donating and sharing this important update, and by inviting your friends to take part in supporting this lifesaving cause. Together, we are their voice, and they need to be heard.

As always we thank you for supporting this vital lifesaving cause for horses in dire need.

Sincerely,

Sincerely,
Katia Louise, Director
