THE ALICE SANCTUARY
This month the proceeds from HORSE RESCUE FUND’S current 50/50 will go to The Alice Sanctuary near Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
Founded in 2014, The Alice Sanctuary provides care and healing for rescued, surrendered and abandoned farm animals and is currently home to almost 300.
Many of the horses in their care are elderly and blind.
If you reside in Alberta you are able to buy 50/50 tickets in support of The Alice Sanctuary and if you do (and even if you don’t) live in Alberta, we hope you will also share our social media posts to help raise awareness about this amazing organization.

Stolen Horse Sold for Hamburger
This story is definitely re-post worthy. This story is a reminder to all of us in Canada who live within a days drive of where slaughter plants are in Alberta, or Quebec, about how easy it would be for any of our horses to be snatched and slaughtered before we even...
