Save the Horses Celebrates 19 Years of Saving Horses

Save the Horses launches a Special Edition T-Shirt Fundraiser

CUMMING, Georgia (January 23, 2017) – Save the Horses is a rescue farm that has launched a special t-shirt fundraiser to celebrate their 19 years of saving horses lives. Since 1998, the 501(c)(3) non-profit has saved thousands of horses and other animals from abuse, neglect, starvation and slaughter.

The commemorative shirts feature a brilliantly colored horse head design by artist Lester Herbertson of Regency Fine Art. The campaign, launched on Teespring, includes t-shirts, sweatshirts, hoodies and a really cool coffee mug. The shirts are available in adult and kids sizes.

“The more we sell, the more funds go towards the feed and medical care of our 130 horses and other animals.” Says Cheryl Flanagan, the rescue’s founder. “We don’t receive any federal or state funding so we have to rely on compassionate people for donations. The road to recovery for these animals is long and expensive, but fundraisers like this provide supporters a quality item for the support that they give.”
