The HORSE You are Looking May be Right Here
We stand as West Virginia’s largest, most effective equine advocacy organization. We also impact Kentucky and Ohio. We were founded in West Virginia at a time when no other organization existed to come to the aid of the horses, and we realize how important it is to expand the reach of rescue through out Appalachia. We know it is vital to assist counties' animal control and law enforcement officers, teach the public and become leaders in the equine industry if we are to change in equine welfare.
Heart of Phoenix is a POWERFUL advocate for All Horses in Appalachia. Poverty in our region means the need for education and assistance is tremendous, and we work to meet those needs. Our team cares deeply about horses, awareness and education. We care about showing what rescued horses are capable of while we work on the roots of "equine neglect" where a future finds fewer horses in need.
This region has a degree of neglect that is rare to find elsewhere in the nation. Abuse, deprivation from water, food and basic care frequently go on at unspeakable levels where horses are left to suffer for years, for decades. While there are many issues facing horses and advocates working at various issues; our focus is to change the outlook of horses in Appalachia for both now and the long term. We work to make sure that horses in our care receive the rehab and training they need to become awesome equine partners for adopters. We lead the state in equine education to make sure the future is brighter for horses. We also strive to make create more Good horsemen and women, so we see fewer horses in need and see more horses going into suitable homes.
The horses of this region have a valuable voice thanks to your support of HOP. We do not just rescue, we create change that leads to less need for rescue in the future. We hope you continue to listen to the stories of our horses and allow us to continue to promote great horsemanship for years to come. You can help change everything for horses in Appalachia when you partner with HOP!
We believe this is possible with you on board! Join us today!
