HOME Site Map Equi-Arts Hail & Farewell Slaughter! Links Racing Rescue/Retire Contact


With flowing tail and flying mane,
Wide nostrils, never stretched by pain,
Mouth bloodless to bit or rein,
And feet that iron never shod,
And flanks unscar'd by spur or rod
A thousand horses-the wild-the free-
Like waves that follow o'er the sea,
Came thickly thundering on.

                        ~Lord Byron

Guides to charitable giving

Research

 

When considering your charitable donations, take the time to research the organization to make sure that what you intend to support is actually the platform of that organization.  Names of organizations can be deceptive.  If you are unsure of their stance on an issue, ask directly.  If you are uncertain of what the funds will be used for, and/or what percentage will actually be used for the cause, ask for specifics.
