Peaceable 1

Have you ever wondered what happens to Thoroughbreds and work horses after they’ve outlived their usefulness? It’s not a pretty story. Thankfully, there are organizations like Peaceable Farm, working to save as many of these precious animals as possible.

Peaceable Farm rescues animals from unnecessary harm and cruelty and find them loving forever homes.

Animals like Joy. Joy is a 10 year old registered Quarter Horse mare who, despite being perfectly healthy and physically sound, found herself in the kill-pen of the New Holland Animal Auction.

Peaceable Farm paid over $500 just to outbid the kill-buyers, then brought this lovely girl back to the farm so she could live out her retirement in peace and dignity.

Unfortunately, good-will is not enough to keep the farm up and running – so they’ve joined forces with GiveCorps.

A gift to Peaceable Farm will rescue more amazing animals, such as Joy, and provide them with the care they deserve.

Every year, on average, it costs $6,000 or more to support each horse, donkey and mule on the farm; and today, Peaceable Farm is currently taking care of more than 100 of them.

You can help raise the funds to care for 10 more of these wonderful animals and provide them with the life they deserve. Let’s make it happen!
