The lives of horses that come to Southern Sun Farm Sanctuary depend entirely on the generosity of our donors to provide:

***BREAKING NEWS***

A generous donor, whom we’ve never had previous contact with, has just made a monumental $100,000 contribution to our cause. She saw the story about the Sanctuary in the Fall issue of Carolina Mountain Life (Pg. 97-98, 109) and it moved her to get involved. She wishes to remain anonymous, and her sole intention is to help the horses in need. Please join her and let's raise the remaining $125,000 to get this barn built!

Meet Tess (Pictured in Our Cover Photo). She is just one of the many horses we have had the privilege of rescuing. In a dire situation in Lumberton, NC, The local authorities had already adopted out the healthy horses, but no one wanted the three that we took. Despite facing neglect and desperation, Tess's spirit shone through. Sadly, her journey ended due to severe malnutrition, and her advanced age (30+ yrs), but not before experiencing love and care at Southern Sun Farm Sanctuary in her final days.

When it’s time for a horse to go, we arrange for the vet to come, and we prepare a place here on the farm for them to be eternally. Ann ties ribbons and bows in their mane and tail, so they can feel special one last time. We let them go to where there’s plenty of space, plenty of grass and plenty of love…

We're known for taking in the horses that are least likely to find a home anywhere else. We travel far and wide to rescue neglected, abused, and abandoned horses, relying solely on the generosity of donors like you.

To expand our facilities and accommodate more rescues like Tess, we're raising a total of $225,000 for a new 12-stall barn. This barn will not only provide shelter but also create space for more horses to find refuge and healing. If you have a desire to name a stall or other room in honor of a loved one, contact us about naming opportunities.

Your generous donation through our GoFundMe fundraiser will not only support the ongoing care of these horses, but also contribute towards the construction of a barn, ensuring they have a comfortable and secure place to call home. Join us in making a difference in the lives of these deserving animals. Every contribution matters, and together, we can create a brighter future for these horses in need.
