HORSE RESCUE FUND
DEDICATED TO HELPING HORSES IN DISTRESS
Horse Rescue Fund is dedicated to raising funds to purchase hay and other feed and to help offset veterinary bills for equine rescues and sanctuaries in Canada.
Horse Rescue Fund also recognizes the need, especially during these turbulent times, to help individuals who are trying to do the right thing but struggling to care for their equines.
There are many cases where what might end with a beloved horse or other equine being euthanized, sold, or relinquished — and even ending up being slaughtered for human consumption — can be prevented by, for example, the purchase of hay or the payment of a vet bill by Horse Rescue Fund.
In addition Horse Rescue Fund supports efforts to help (evacuate, vet, stable, and feed) equines during disasters including wildfires, flooding, mudslides, earthquakes, tornadoes, and hurricanes.
Once it’s safe for equines to be returned home, Horse Rescue Fund is dedicated to helping fund the transport of equines home — and if need be help provide replacement hay/feed and fencing.
Horse Rescue Fund helps equines across Canada but this raffle is licenced by the province of Alberta and tickets are only available online and only if you are in Alberta.
Raffles in other provinces are in the works, so please join our mailing list below to be notified when tickets in your province become available.

CANADA SLAUGHTERS HORSES FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION
It may be hard for some to believe that tens of thousands of horses, including pets, are routinely slaughtered in Canada, for human consumption.
Some of the meat is consumed in Canada and much of it is shipped to the European Union and other markets, including Japan.
The barbaric slaughter of horses is currently not legal in the United States, BUT horses, including pets and ex-racehorses, from the United States are shipped to Canada and to Mexico to be slaughtered.
In addition Canada allows for the transportation of live horses to Japan, to be slaughtered for human consumption, and unfortunately the transportation of horses destined for slaughter within Canada, and by air, is far from humane.

Horses are Slaughtered in Canada for Human Consumption?
I hate to admit this but until 2010 I had no idea that horses were regularly slaughtered for human consumption. Seriously, I thought I must be hearing things. People eat horse meat? People send their horses to auction, their pets, their companions, without setting a...
