Describe the Organization's Mission:
Part 3 - Line 1
THE WHITE BIRD APPALOOSA HORSE RESCUE RESCUES, REHABILITATES, AND REHOMES AT-RISK APPALOOSAS AND OTHER HORSES. HORSES THAT CANNOT BE ADOPTED ARE PROVIDED PERMANENT SANCTUARY SO THAT THEY MAY LIVE OUT THE REMAINDER OF THEIR LIVES IN SAFETY AND DIGNITY. THE RESCUE PROVIDES COMMUNITY SUPPORT TO THOSE FAMILIES UNABLE TO CONTINUE CARING FOR THEIR HORSES, ASSISTS LOCAL ANIMAL CONTROL OFFICERS AND CONDUCTS OUTREACH AND EDUCATIONAL SESSIONS.
Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
Part 3 - Line 4a
EQUINE REHABILITATION: FEED AND HAY, PLUS SUPPLEMENTS FOR APPROXIMATELY 24 HORSES. FEED AND HAY ARE AGAIN THE LARGEST COST ITEM. THE RESCUE CARED FOR THE SAME AVERAGE NUMBER OF HORSES FOR MOST OF THE YEAR AS MAINTAINED DURING 2022. THE COST OF HAY AND RISES IN THE COST OF FEED INCREASED THIS EXPENSE BY 12.5%.
MAINTAINING CLEAN LIVING QUARTERS IS OF PARTICULAR IMPORTANCE WHEN DEALING WITH ELDER EQUINES AND EQUINES WITH MEDICAL PROBLEMS. KEEPING A GOOD QUALITY BEDDING FOR STALLS ENTAILS A REGULAR SUPPLY OF CLEAN, DRY SHAVINGS. THESE ADDITIONAL SERVICES ALSO INCLUDE UTILITIES. THE COST COMPARED TO 2022 HAVE STAYED LEVEL, WITH GOOD HOUSEKEEPING KEEPING UTILITY BILLS AND BEDDING COSTS WITHIN BUDGET.
EQUINE REHABILITATION: INCLUDES VETERINARY CARE, FARRIER WORK, MEDICAL SUPPLEMENTATION AND HEALTH CARE ITEMS. RESCUE HORSES ARRIVE IN A VARIETY OF CONDITIONS - ELDERLY, STARVED, UNSOUND, AND WITH A RANGE OF MEDICAL PROBLEMS. IN 2023 THE RESCUE CONTINUED TO CARE FOR THE REMAINING 3 OF THE 2014 UNHANDLED HORSES, AND PROVIDE LONG TERM CARE FOR SANCTUARY HORSES, AS WELL AS TAKING IN NEW HORSES FROM A VARIETY OF SOURCES. THE EXPENSES SHOW A RISE OF 11% FOR THIS SERVICE COMPARED TO 2022, AS MEDICAL COSTS HAVE ONCE AGAIN RISEN. THE RESCUE HAS WORKED WITH ITS VETERINARY TO USE GENERIC DRUGS WHEREVER POSSIBLE. THE TOTAL INCLUDES REHABILITATIVE CARE AND END OF LIFE EUTHANASIA WHEN NECESSARY.
EQUINE HOUSING: HORSES ARE LARGE, STRONG ANIMALS THAT ARE ROUGH ON INFRASTRUCTURE SUCH AS SHELTERS AND FENCES. THE REPAIR AND UPKEEP OF FACILITIES AND EQUIPMENT TO KEEP THEM USABLE AND SAFE IS AN ONGOING EXPENSE. THE SUBSTANTIAL REDUCTION IN COST OF THIS SERVICE OVER 2022 REFLECTS A LESS DEMANDING YEAR FOR MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR, AND A SLOW DOWN IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE COVERED FACILITY FOR TRAINING.
