FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 14 July 2014 CONTACT Bev Dee Executive Director Bright Futures Farm equine charity E-mail: brightfuturesfarm@gmail Phone: 724.496.4960 BRIGHT FUTURES FARM EQUINE CHARITY RECEIVES ELDER CARE GRANT THROUGH BRENNAN EQUINE WELFARE FUND (BEWF) Bright Futures Farm equine charity (BFF) was established in 2000 to help ex-racehorses, in particular, find new homes and new careers after they are done racing. In 2005 we expanded our work to include providing sanctuary to permanently disabled and elder horses, including elder stallions. BFF currently provides permanent sanctuary, on site, to six horses. We also care for a 30 year old Quarter Horse mare, Three Star Bugs, and a 32 year old Arabian stallion, Howie, through boarding arrangements. Board for these two deserving elders for 2014 has been funded, in part, by a grant from Brennan Equine Welfare Fund of The Greater Cincinnati Foundation. “We are honored and grateful to BEWF for providing funding in the amount of $2,000 to help with the cost to care for these two deserving elders. “ The care of Bugs and Howie would not be possible without the support of Brennan Equine Welfare Fund and individual sponsors. BEWF serves equine rescue shelters across the country which provide dignity to final years of aged, injured, abused, starved and slaughter-bound horses, as well as those used in medical experimentation. This fund supports registered, 501(c)(3) organizations that specialize in retirement and rehabilitation services and offer a peaceful and permanent sanctuary for these beautiful animals. Bright Futures Farm rescues Thoroughbred horses from auctions, abuse and neglect then rehabilitates and retrains them, eventually finding them pre-screened, qualified adoptive homes in the Eastern Unites States, and provides permanent sanctuary to a number of elder or disabled equines.
