This Shirt Saves Horses’ Lives
UPDTE NOVEMBER 2021:
Back for the first time since JUNE of 2020. Once again available for a limited time.
Proceeds from this t-shirt go to helping our friends at Horse Rescue Fund.
Horse Rescue Fund is dedicated to raising funds and distributing those funds to equine rescues and sanctuaries in Canada and the United States that are registered charities — or not.
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 being sent to slaughter, euthanized, sold or relinquished can be prevented by a gift of funds.
Horse Rescue Fund strives to raise awareness about the necessity of education on all aspects of equine ownership.
Through education Horse Rescue Fund believes that the number of horses being slaughtered for human consumption, and the number of other horses in need, will diminish.
Horse Rescue Fund also supports efforts to save (evacuate, vet, stable and feed) equines during and after natural disasters such as forest fires, flooding, mudslides, etc.
Look closely and you’ll notice that actress Kate Drummond is wearing a limited edition T-shirt. (Sorry it’s sold out BUT click the button below for another very special t-shirt.)
Proceeds from the sales of this T-shirt go towards banning the slaughter of horses within Canada and beyond.
Kate posts… “I’m just a girl, sitting in the middle of racks of couture, asking one of them to be the perfect dress 😉💕🙏 Thank you Jordan Stewart for the delicious afternoon of dress up, friendship-building and laughs. I am so excited to wear your masterpiece at the CSAs this month. 🔥 ”

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.
