#HelpAHorse Day 2018 @ SavetheHorses

Picture
A MASSIVE THANK YOU to ALL the volunteers and supporters that came out to #helpahorse day. The LOVE that you bring for the rescue and the animals knows no bounds. 
It was so heartwarming to see new & seasoned volunteers and supporters work together towards the one goal of helping to make the lives of these innocent souls better. In this world with so many negative influences it truly warms my HEART to witness and experience REAL outward evidence of selflessness and LOVE. Everyone came together in the name of LOVE and it was a truly an amazing and magical experience. I thank you all for your dedication, devotion and commitment to Saving the Horses.
