True Innocents Equine Rescue is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that rescues abused, neglected, abandoned, and unwanted horses primarily in Southern California.

Habitat for Horses is a non-profit equine protection agency committed to the prevention, rescue and rehabilitation of neglected, abused and homeless equine. While being responsive to calls for assistance from law enforcement, the organization maintains a leadership role in horse protection issues and assist in setting the standards for all equine facilities throughout the US.

Established in 2005, Healing Hearts is dedicated to the rescue and rehabilitation of abused and neglected animals. We provide them with care and compassion at our Healing Hearts Animal Refuge Ranch located in Willcox, Arizona. Although Healing Hearts is a refuge where animals may live out their natural lives, if at all possible we try to find them a new forever home. Domestic companion and farm animals of all kinds; horses, dogs, cats, pigs, goats, sheep, burros, cows and rabbits find a safe haven at this unique and dedicated no-kill animal facility.

The need to find homes for horses retiring off the race track is great. After The Homestretch-Arizona was formed to fill this niche. From the idea to the reality happened in a very short time span. Nine people expressed a desire to form a Board. We applied to the State of Arizona to become a non-profit corporation and received approval July 25, 2011. Our first Board meeting was held on August 25, 2011 and we immediately applied to the IRS for our 501(c)(3) status. Within three weeks we received our IRS Determination Letter (September 15, 2011). In October we began rescuing horses who had retired from the track.
