Deplorable living conditions, thin, scared, and starving! In desperate need of Hope! A day the Hope team will never forget. Pulling onto a run-down, unkept property and seeing the “kill pen” babies that had been “rescued” trying to survive under those conditions.

So the babies - 8 foals...
YES EIGHT FOALS!!!!!!
along with one beautiful mare (thought to be imminently “due”), were loaded on two trailers and transported to Hope. The day was September 30, 2025.

Fast forward to November 3, 2025 and all 9 souls have been officially transferred to the custody of Hope In The Valley Equine Rescue.
But what does that mean? For the eight foals and the possibly pregnant mare, it means nothing. Nothing changes for them. They continue to feel the love, safety, and support of the Hope team just as they did on the day they arrived at Hope. For the Hope team it means a sigh of relief to know that we can offer these eight foals and the beautiful mare a second chance at a better life.

For you? What does this mean FOR YOU? Or perhaps the question is… What does all of this mean TO YOU?

Please consider a donation to help us help THEM. ALL donations will be matched up to $10,000! So help us raise $10,000 and turn that into $20,000 for these foals and the entire Hope Herd!

Hope exists to rescue, rehabilitate, reconnect, and rehome –
