The mission of The Horse Rescue, Relief & Retirement Fund, Inc. (HRRRFI) is to improve the quality of life for all horses and thereby improve the lives of people through their human bond with horses. We also aim to improve the public awareness and knowledge of the standards of care necessary to keep equines healthy and safe. Our mission and philosophy is reflected in our programs. Equines have an ability to improve the quality of life, health and well being for people with disabilities. Through therapeutic and enjoyable equine activities, humans learn horsemanship that stimulates physical, mental and emotional growth. Our Barn Buddy program uses the rescued horses to help foster children improve their lives through the involvement with these horses. Working with horses can also give a therapeutic effect on people struggling with psychological problems. In our ongoing attempt to establish equine rescue services. It became apparent that the level of equine knowledge and care amongst equine owners often does not measure up to the standard of care necessary to keep a horse healthy and safe. The HRRRFI offers ongoing educational classes and clinics for horse owners and enthusiasts, as well as for our volunteers. Our primary goal is to save the horses. We do rescues at all times, but particularly in times of despair and crisis. Our organization is made up of volunteers with a mission to stop horses from being sent to slaughter or abuse.
