MATERIALS DONATED AND MORE ON THE WAY!

At the end of May, after volunteering for 3 months, Abby Mayer headed back to the US and on to new horizons. She left behind many good friends and the chicos at Vida y Esperanza but she assured she will not be forgotten. During her time with us she was able to collect the following donations:

Jose Luis receiving the donations.

7 used bridles

2 new bridles

2 breast plates

4 used girths

2 sets of stirrups

1 pair of reins

4 new crops

4 new bits

1 Saddle YEAH!

4 brushes

5 combs

2 lead ropes

2 jump cups

6 lead line clips

2 hoof picks

2 used saddle pads

You should see how much better equipped the program is and how the kids brush those horses! We want to thank everyone who donated, with the cash we raised $415 we were able to buy the new equipment above and shoe and feed the horses for a couple months. 

Trying to speak with Abby on Skype to thank her!

The next project is to build and paint the jump standards so that the kids can practice and begin to compete in the local horse shows. There are two new volunteers coming Milo and his daughter Misha and some surprises so keep checking out the blog and once again from the bottom of our hearts THANK YOU!!!
