The Cloud Foundation has continued to fight for our precious wild horses for the past 20 years that I have followed them. Each year I try to increase my donations as their needs continue to grow to help the horses. Without this group the future of our horses would be in great jeopardy. There needs to be more awareness to spread the word, or we may face a dismal future without these magnificent animals.

The Cloud Foundation is very dedicated to preserving and protecting our wild horses and burros. Not only do they fight to stop roundups, but they work to save mustangs from slaughter and will personally rescue wild horses from those situations sometimes. They are very kind and compassionate people and it's been a joy to work with them for this important cause.
My recent contact with The Cloud Foundation was ok, but somewhat, disappointing. Why? BLM roundups of wild horses & Burros on US parklands has increased, it seems, over the years. Politicians & equine non profits such as The Cloud Foundation have failed to stop the roundups. The Cloud Foundation engages in international travel & seminars abroad to educate. This foundation fails to address transport of wild horses & Burros headed for Mexican & Canadian slaughterhouses as well as slaughterhouses abroad!
Review from Guidestar
No foundation has worked as tireless as this; ensuring that healthy horses are living on healthy ranges despite the obstacles put in place by government and other interests for American's lands. The board members are all volunteers and contribute to the local economy and sustenance of every herd management area. Continual efforts are put forth by this board and it's executive director, Ginger Kathrens despite that horror that free AND captured mustangs face.
Review from Guidestar
The Cloud Foundation is working tirelessly to preserve a "living" chapter of America's history. . . our rapidly decreasing number of wild horses roaming free on their designated, ever diminishing public lands. TCF strives to raise awareness and educate on all fronts including classrooms, the media, lawmakers, and presents at multiple out reach venues every year. This foundation collaborates with other organizations and operates on one of the lowest administrative cost ratios I've ever encountered, meaning the $ goes for the wild horses' protection and good.
Supporting the Cloud Foundation is a sure way to make sure that your dollars are going directly to the cause. The work that The Cloud Foundation does is amazing and although small, they have made a global impact and bettered the lives of wild horses in the wild as well as helping to get those in captivity into better situations. The American Wild Horse is a living piece of our history and an amazing part of their varied ecosystems.
Without the Cloud Foundation the great mustangs would not be as well known nor as protected. Supporting The Cloud Foundation is the best way to make sure your dollars go to wild horse preservation and protection.
As a former staff member, I can attest to the honesty and reputability of this organization. Please help TCF to help our wild horses!
After spending several days stomping around in the Pryor Mt mustang range, I came away with amazement and gratitude for the work The Cloud Foundation does. The foundation is committed to the preservation of the mustangs by educating the public and building relationships with those who have the power to save the Mustangs. There is nothing like early morning next to a spring fed watering hole and watching the horse families come to drink. Learning about Mustang behaviors and their lineage from foundation members who volunteer time to document and preserve the rich Mustang history and their connection to our own history is exciting.
These people are so devoted to Saving America's Horses, it is beyond commendable. Their efforts have incorporated countless efforts to curtail government intervention of removing our horses from the land.
They are so realistic in their approach, consulting experts in many fields of how horses deserve to remain in the wild and how they contribute to the eco system. Documentaries, filmed and narrated by the originator of this organization have been aired publicly over the past years. They believe in what they do and their efforts to overcome this awful situation of rounding up our beautiful mustangs is relentless.
