Welcome to Bear Valley Rescue |
It is a man's sympathy with all creatures that truly makes him a man. Until he extends his circle of compassion to all living things, man himself will not find peace.~ Albert Schweitzer (1875-1965) |

Bear Valley Rescue is honoured to have been the FIRST Global Federation of Animal Sanctuaries verified equine sanctuary in Canada! GFAS is the only globally recognized organization providing standards for identifying legitimate animal sanctuaries, with strict standards that have to be met in order to be accredited by their organization. |

It’s that season: we have started buying this coming winter's hay.
Thanks to the generosity of you, our supporters, we have so far raised funds to purchase about 4/5ths of the hay we'll need to get through until spring. Our ability to help desperate horse owners and animals in distress is limited by the feed and care we can provide within our budget.
If you are able to donate, now is the time!
Thank you for helping us help the animals.

Hay for the horses is our single largest expense.
If you have good quality horse hay to donate, please contact us and we can arrange to have it picked up. We use hay throughout the year as we have a number of horses that cannot go out on pasture in the summer. Tax receipts can be issued for all hay donations. Help us put a dent in our biggest expense!

Help us care for the senior horses.
We have many older and special needs horses that need custom feeding & daily medication (Nov 2019 - almost 60 horses aged 20 years or more!). You can donate feed for the horses through our feed supplier, Country Junction Feeds, arrange it through another supplier, or bring it to us directly. We appreciate all donations and can issue charitable tax receipts!

For info on adopting and to see the horses currently residing at the Rescue, look under 'The Animals' tab. Wondering what you can do to help the horses or get involved? Look under the 'How To Help' tab for more information. One of the best ways to help is though a monthly sponsorship of one of the horses or other animals at the Rescue. |
