Here is the press release about the grant organization mentioned in my last email:

I would use the $250k grant to further assist the non-profits that I work with and promote the need to help the wild mustangs in America and end the slaughterhouse pipeline. This would mean building a website and board of directors to help fund equine rescue groups. Brochures and social media, posters and mailers will be used to promote awareness, including education of children in schools, organizations and adults who love animals, and politicians involved in policy decisions on animal welfare. It is a grassroots effort involving people across the country concerned about the future of the wild horses. There are 50,000 wild horses in holding pens in the west by the Bureau of Land Management and less than 20,000 in the wild on public lands. In the near future their will be no more wild horses, if they all get rounded up. Cattle ranchers, oil and mining interests do not want the wild horses and consider them feral animals. However, 80% of the American public polled do not want the slaughterhouses in America and want the wild horse to be allowed on public lands as by law states since 1970.

Animal rescue groups and protection by government are needed so that the wild horse will be preserved as living treasures and not just in the movies.

My goal is to dedicate my extra time to protecting the wild horses and burros in the U.S.

Education and building public awareness is a constantly changing process to keep up with new legislation and new ideas. I belong to a discussion group on Linked In called Equus. We have been making a list of how the problem of unwanted horses can be solved in this country. Promoting the solutions and keeping information flowing is a big part of stopping overbreeding, raising funds for horses, and a long list ways to help them. There are several groups that want to promote horse meat and the restart of horse slaughterhouses in the U.S. They are funded by cattlemen, big financial groups and Belgium corporations who sell horse meat to Japan and Europe for expensive restaurants in Europe and Japan. The horse in America is not raised to eat, they are for sport and pleasure riding. American’s don’t want slaughterhouses. Therefore it is an uphill battle against strong slaughter groups with deep pockets and financial interests in killing the horses with inhumane and cruel treatment at slaughterhouses.

It entails promoting and educating of the public to keep the slaughterhouses from reopening in this country. (talk shows, lectures and social media will be a part of this effort).

I have a network of freelance copywriters, artists, web designers, legal and pr people interested in helping the horses.

Together with their passion and with the many horse lovers in this country, there is great potential to make this effort work to save the horses for future generations to enjoy on public lands. We are interested in Eco-tourism with wild horses, books, stories, films and a plethora of ways to promote this task to save the wild horses and burros.
