Sunrise Horse Rescue
$30,601 raised from 132 donations
How We Impact the Community
We rescue and provide sanctuary for abused and neglected horses in Napa and surrounding counties, educate the public about current issues affecting horse welfare, and provide community members the unique benefit of equine-assisted learning and therapy.
In addition to caring for horses in our sanctuary and our programs, we have a very active Horse-in-Need Program. We triage each and every call we receive and provide critical resources like veterinary support, feed, and transport.
Last year we received over 115 calls regarding horses in need. We are unique in that we responded to each one and are able to intervene at the critical moment to ensure that each horse receives what they need. Without intervention, the vast majority of these horses would end up neglected, abused, or slaughtered.
We also host programs for kids, and for people with dementia and their caregivers.
Testimonial
Sunrise is deeply respected in the veterinary community for their tireless efforts, creative solutions, and unshakable focus on animal welfare. They lead with education and kindness; it is our honor to work with them.
