Benefit for Babe

Every year, horses die from neglect, ignorance, or human cruelty. Rescue facilities overflow around the country in the attempt to stop needless suffering. Serenity Equine Rescue and Rehabilitation saves horses, ponies, and minis from kill pens, neglectful owners, and hoarding situations. Each horse brought into Serenity is given vet care, safe boarding facilities, and socialization, as the volunteers work to adopt them out to forever homes.

I have been a volunteer at Serenity for several years. And as many of you know, found my beloved Chance through their program.

Every horse matters, but every once in a while a very special horse arrives at the farm.

Babe is an elderly mare who endured almost twenty years in appalling conditions. She was kept alone in a tiny, muddy backyard. Horses are herd animals and to confine one alone is as bad as solitary confinement for a human being. She suffered from a lack of nutrition and vet care, and untreated health problems.

She is also one of the sweetest horses the volunteers at Serenity have ever known.

Her long-term neglect led to expensive vet bills. Though already stretched thin, Serenity couldn’t turn away this amazing animal. While this fundraiser is to offset the added expenses of bringing Babe onto the farm, Serenity’s mission serves so much more than just one horse. Your donation will make Babe’s recovery possible, and allow Serenity to continue to care for all their animals.

Everyone who donates will be automatically entered to win books! Check back for the growing list of authors supporting Babe and Serenity.
