Choose Your Program to Support, Make it a Monthly Donation
Help the crippled mustang yearlings, Venus with one eye, Aegis/Segar the Mustang Protector, Hay for horses, etc. Choose what program you want to support. Make it a monthly donation so that we can plan on the donation. Your support and contributions will enable us to continue with our mission of providing a home for horses and fund programs for kids, veterans, and for mental health. With the rising cost of hay and animal feed it is becoming especially critical for donations to take care of the animals here and to fund our programs. Our spring Wild Horse Event has over 80 kids signed up.

I turned my ranch into a haven/sanctuary and began rescuing mustangs and other horses 4 years ago. Since that time, over 40 equines and other animals have come here to live.
Since that time and after the death of my son, I have changed the mission of Wild Horse Haven Rescue to one of helping people as well as animals. With programs for the youth, Wild Horse Camp, and programs for veterans, Wild Horses for Heroes, and others suffering from PTSD and other mental health issues.

Wild Horse Haven Rescue is an advocate for horses and all animals, we promote and educate our knowledge that all animals are sentient beings with compassionate souls and deep feelings. We teach compassion and respect for horses and all life. We adhere to the premise that horses are especially attuned to the emotional needs of humans and we bring them together with human-animal connections.
Wild Horse Haven Rescue is committed to educating our youth in the quest to respect animals (and all life), and to actively support responsible care and understanding of animals and nature. We are dedicated to our mission to support horses, humans and other animal souls who are suffering and in need.
We are both a rescue and a sanctuary (haven), providing a home and care to any (and all) mustangs, horses or burros that are in need, as well as any animals that are in distress. The horses of WHHR are partners in our programs for the youth as well as providing support for veterans and others suffering from PTSD or other mental health issues through structured connections; horse to human.
