A special plea for support!

As everyone is Alberta with horses or livestock knows, the price of hay this year has really gone up (again). With the number of horses in our care, our hay expense has climbed a lot too! Your support would be sincerely appreciated at this time with cash donations to help us cover our hay costs. Any amount helps! So far this fall we've spent over $40,000 on hay. We have another $10,000 we have to pay for, and this will bring our hay stock up to about 3/4 of what we will need for this winter. We thank everyone who has donated either hay or cash to help us get this far, but we do desperately need to raise another $10,000 at least to cover the remainder of the current bills.  We had hoped to raise this amount at our open house but the weather did not cooperate.

You can also help by purchasing tickets on the raffles from our open house that have been extended to Oct 15th/2018. There is a beautiful western print to the highest bidder (current high bid $100), and the 4 items in the raffle: including a family fun night basket, a kids' activity basket, a beautiful handmade quilt, and a set of bone china mugs.
Raffle tickets are only $2 each, and you can specify which item(s) you'd like your tickets entered for.
We also have a wine basket raffle, tickets are $5 each, draw date is Nov 1st.
Tickets for any of these can be purchased by etransfer to [email protected] or through paypay or even mail - barring a mail strike, or through one of our volunteers who can connect with you.  Bids on the western print can be emailed to [email protected].
Thank you so much for your support and caring!
