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 25 HORSES. FEED AND HAY ARE AGAIN THE LARGEST COST ITEM. ALTHOUGH THE RESCUE SERVED FEWER HORSES FOR MOST OF THE YEAR THAN DURING 2020, THE COST OF HAY WAS HIGHER DUE TO HIGH DEMAND, AND RISES IN THE COST OF FEED ALSO INCREASED THIS EXPENSE.


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 2021 THE RESCUE CONTINUED TO CARE FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE 4 REMAINING 2014 UNHANDLED HORSES, AND LONG TERM CARE FOR SANCTUARY HORSES, AS WELL AS TAKING IN NEW HORSES FROM A VARIETY OF SOURCES. THE FEWER HORSES FOR PART OF THE YEAR SHOWS IN THE SIMILAR EXPENSE FOR THIS SERVICE COMPARED TO 2020, AS MEDICAL COSTS HAVE RISEN. THE TOTAL INCLUDES REHABILITATIVE CARE AND END OF LIFE EUTHANASIA WHEN NECESSARY.


EQUINE HOUSING: WHILE THE RESCUE'S FACILITIES ARE DONATED SPACE, 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 INCREASE IN COST OF THIS SERVICE OVER 2020 REFLECTS CONTINUING MAINTENANCE, REPAIR AND ADDITIONS TO OLD FACILITIES, PLUS THE EXPENSES INVOLVED IN PREPARING FOR A COVERED FACILITY FOR TRAINING.


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 LARGE INCREASE IN COSTS OVER PREVIOUS YEARS REFLECTS THE INCREASE IN UTILITY BILLS AND A CHARGE FOR BEDDING WE HAD HAD DONATED IN THE PAST.
