My family and I visited FRIENDS Horse Rescue 3 years ago. We visited with intentions of making a donantion for the horses. Three years later we STILL sponsor 4 horses! We love FRIENDS and all of the horses. It has been a fantastic experience, as we were not horse people. We are horse people now!!FRIENDS is a great non profit horse rescue. It is also a wonderful place for families to get together for a good cause. My kids have become good riders and have learned a lot about caring for animals. They love the horses. FRIENDS has a "sponsor a horse" program that lets people sponsor their own horse to take care of and ride. The sponsor money helps to take care of and feed the horses. It is a great opportunity for people that want a horse, but have no place to keep one. The fee is nominal. I highly reccomend FRIENDS and plan on being a member for a long time!
