It all began with a horse, a child and a dream. It was a sweltering summer day in July 2010 when 10-year-old Marcus climbed atop Gabe, the former party pony adopted by Hope Reins to serve as the first official ‘equine counselor.’ The red-haired foster boy wore a broad smile and sat upright as his counselor led Gabe around the pasture – unaware that he was the first of many more hurting kids that would enter the gates of this special place.

Yes, Kim Tschirret had a dream. The Raleigh mom of two and former marketing executive with Thomas the Tank Engine had recently read a remarkable book that not only touched her heart deeply but evoked a sense of personal purpose – a passionate mission she later could only attribute to God’s artful plan.

“Hope Rising” was the book – and its author, Kim Meeder, chronicled heart wrenching stories of abused horses she and her husband, Troy, rescued and the hurting kids who began to find hope and healing themselves while helping care for the extraordinary horses. The Oregon couple witnessed the natural connection between emotionally and physically wounded kids and horses – and embarked on an amazing journey by founding Crystal Peaks Youth Ranch, which today is home to dozens of horses and has served thousands of kids and families.

Tranquility Farm accepts the donation of Thoroughbred horses from the racetrack and breeding farm, and our goal is to give each horse their best opportunity to find an adoptive home. For those who are not readily adoptable we offer comfortable retirement whenever possible, prioritizing horses that have been significant competitors or producers. Tranquility Farm requests, but does not require, that owners contribute sponsorship to help defray the costs of rehabilitation and retraining. No horse is denied acceptance into Tranquility Farm based upon his owner?s financial contribution.

Indiana Horse Rescue was established in 1998 as an equine rescue organization dedicated to preventing unnecessary slaughter, abuse, and neglect of horses. Indiana Horse Rescue joined forces with Animal Protection Coalition, Inc. in 2002 becoming their equine division.

Welcome to FalconRidge, a non-profit, humane equine organization, sanctuary, rehabilitation and training center for the horse. Nestled in the rolling foothills of North Valley Center in San Diego County, FalconRidge Ranch was founded in 2002 in order to provide the care, rehabilitation, training and temporary or permanent home to unwanted, abused, neglected or slaughter bound horses. The average number of rescued horses at any time at FalconRidge is over 50. Hundreds of horses have been saved, trained, housed, or rehomed by the equine charity in the last five years.

Spirit to be Free is a non-profit animal sanctuary that rescues and rehabs dogs, horses, pigs, cats, goats, and sheep. Most of the animals are strays or abandoned.
