Horse Directories

Aftercare Charles Town was formed in 2013 to help Charles Town horsemen find homes for horses ending their racing careers. It is an independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to the rehoming and repurposing of retired racehorses that are ending their racing careers at Charles Town Races.

Since our inception, we have facilitated the placement of over 450 retired racehorses in safe and appropriate new homes.

Our mission, to intercept slaughter bound and distressed horses, ponies and mules that still have quality of life. We rehabilitate them and give them a second chance at life and being loved. We run yearly educational programs as both fundraising efforts and in the hopes of creating a better future for horses in the generations to come. This farm was created for the horses. We have a combined experience of close to 70 years and can show you how to have an amazing, life changing relationship with a horse!

Please visit the donations page to contribute to our efforts! Please visit the Programs page to see how you can interact and support our efforts to care for the senior and special needs sanctuary horses by visiting or enrolling in one of our programs. Virtual adoption of an equine senior is also an IDEAL way to help a horse! You do not need to do anything laborious. Be a rescuer or lifeline simply by standing by one horse throughout the rest of their life.

Our current resident horses range from late teens through mid 30s. Many have amazing stories. Several are bonded in pairs. A couple are seeing eye partners. A few assist with educational programs. All are quite aware they are cherished.
We run an elite rescue and our primary focus on quality. Great feed. Superb care. Perfect grounds. A peaceful environment. The horses come first. Always.
​

Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate, & rehome animals who would otherwise end up without the love and compassion they so greatly deserve.

We focus on rescuing horses and livestock that have been neglected and abused. They come from deplorable conditions. Their spirits are broken and their health compromised. We are committed to making sure they are loved and cared for at our facility until they are ready to start their new lives. We want to help these animals find their true soul mates and forever homes.

We are the voice for these incredible souls.
