Help us raise the funds to care for our horses!
The recent storm in Santa Barbara County had some long-lasting devastating effects for many. At Hearts, the bedding of our horse stalls proved to be inadequate to handle heavy rain. This made it difficult for the 16 horses (and many volunteers who help maintain the grounds) to function properly. We have found a satisfactory alternative that has been proven at other stables in the area and it is our opinion that for the future health and comfort of our horses, we need to utilize new pine pellet shavings. We rely on our specially trained horses to run our programs and need their living conditions to be in top condition.
We are looking to our wonderful community of supporters and volunteers, like you, to help raise the much needed funds to upgrade the horse bedding from a fine grain sand to pine pellet shavings that absorbs moisture, provides a dry soft environment for the horses, and will withstand weather conditions throughout the 2023 year. Installation on the initial stall has already been done, but we need your help to complete the project and help ensure our horses stay comfortable for the remainder of the year.
Please consider making a gift of any size to help us reach our goal of raising $7,000 to install and maintain the new bedding for the rest of the year for our herd of horses.
