My Nonprofit Reviews

I have volunteered with this organization for over 4 years. The facility is immaculate, the horses are given the best care available by the farm manager, employees and volunteers. It is a beautiful place full of beautiful horses. More importantly the folks there have big hearts and a tough mission to take in rescues that can find new lives in other horse disciplines. A few animals are there for life and are truly loved. However, most of the horses that come through Aiken Equine Rescue find new forever homes that are meticulously scrutinized prior to adoption.
I have a rescue horse from there and I know many people who have adopted from there. The manager, Jim Rhodes, is a big guy, with a big smile and an even bigger heart. He has integrity and the true grit necessary to try to raise the funds needed to save as many animals he can and find new, happy homes for them. Sometimes it's tough to stay positive. However, Jim just went through a long, tiresome and very expensive process of trying his best to save 4 foals from near death. 24 hour care by Jim and his volunteers over several months, saved 3 out of 4 of these desperately sick animals. The 3 remaining babies will grow and prosper and find new forever homes thanks to Aiken Equine Rescue!
