ASHA Equine Welfare Advocacy Committee Launches Fundraiser for Horses in Need

In the wake of the recent contributions made by EWAC to the legal entities and service providers assisting with the care of American Saddlebreds that have been legally seized in the Boyle County and other public welfare cases, EWAC is launching a fundraiser to develop much needed funds to assist these horses.

EWAC is funded solely through contributions donated directly to the committee. Bruce Hanson, an early advocate for equine welfare provided the seed money for the Committee to assist organizations and rescues in the following manner:

The Bruce Hanson Grant: It supplies a grants to eligible 501c3 organizations and may be applied for every three years. For details, please refer to the Bruce Hanson Grant Application.  

Emergency Funding. As the EWAC is not a rescue organization, it cannot step in and directly assist unless there is a seizure by a legal entity (i.e. Animal Control or the local police department) or in the case where EWAC works with a rescue organization in a direct surrender. When a seizure or surrender has occurred, the organization receiving the animals, whether they are 501c(3) or not, may apply for emergency funding. Funds are paid directly to vendors upon submission of invoices.

EWAC is asking anyone looking to support their efforts and the American Saddlebreds relying on their assistance to make a contribution to their fundraiser today at the link below. EWAC is a 501c3, and contributions may be tax deductible. Please consult your tax advisor.
