Caring for equines is a costly operation, as any horse owner knows! It costs us on average a thousand rand per month to keep one horse at the Unit. It is not possible for us to keep horses on a permanent basis – we would love to be a retirement center – but we have to spend our precious funds where they are needed most, and that is to bring in needy cases, rehabilitate, and re- home!

We cannot do this without your donations.

If you do not have a credit card, you are still able to donate to us using our direct banking details:
