Fundraiser for Jubilee and Liberty

Meet Jubilee and Liberty!

We are thrilled at the privilege of rescuing these two chestnut fillies! Due to their start in life, they have never received any kind of medical attention and care. Because of this, they have high medical bills and have already needed almost $1,000 in medical costs alone.

We need supporters to contribute another $4,000 for their care and training. They will need more vet visits to finish all their shots, deworming, bloodwork, and even ultrasounds! Liberty and Jubilee both have a possibility of being pregnant, which could also add future medical costs. We also anticipate needing additional fencing and shelter for them and their possible babies.

We are asking for people who would like to have a part in Jubilee and Liberty’s stories of healing to offer support in a financial way. Whether $5 or $500, a donation of any size will be gratefully used! Please consider helping us rehabilitate these two lovely girls to a life full of purpose, joy, and hope. God created these two little horses and He is weaving a story through them that can teach us all about the restoration and healing He can provide.

 

We are running a fundraiser through Facebook since Facebook does not charge fees for non-profit fundraisers through their platform. Find our fundraising page on Facebook here.

If you would like to donate via PayPal, click this link.

We understand that some people would prefer not to donate online, so feel free to write out a check to Haven Acres and send it to 2820 245th St E, Hampton, MN 55031.

Look for Jubilee and Liberty’s rescue story in the upcoming newsletter, and make sure to follow their continuing story on Facebook!

Raised $263 through Picaboo Christmas Cards!

We raised $263 dollars through the Picaboo Cards-for-Causes fundraiser!

Thanks so much to everyone who ordered Christmas cards!

This extra funding came just in time to help us pay for extra medical expenses for a wound our horse Fix got just last Thursday. He looks like he got kicked in his shoulder, resulting in an open wound and a terrible limp. The biggest worry has been that he cannot put any weight on that leg. He can hobble around, but he will only touch that toe to the ground once in a while. He is on stall rest, pain medication, and we are still trying to figure out what is wrong. It looks like he might have an injured nerve, which he can recover from with months of rest.

So thanks a million to those who supported Haven Acres in this way!

Please be praying for Fix, that we can figure out what is wrong and have wisdom about how to help him best. He is one of our sweetest, most reliable horses, and we all love him very much.

Introducing Jubilee and Liberty!

Meet Jubilee and Liberty! These two sweet girls were rescued by Haven Acres this past Sunday. They are around three years old and have never been handled. They both have lice, worms, have never had any foot care, and need a pregnancy test since they were pastured with a stud.

Jubilee is a chestnut Quarter Horse/Arabian cross (Quarab) with a teeny white star on her forehead. She has a calmer personality of the two, and while she is scared, we have at least been able to touch her a couple times.

Liberty is also a chestnut Quarab but with a white stripe down her face. She has a more “sensitive” personality, which means that she is more easily scared, and so far does not trust enough to let anyone touch her. She also seems to be more responsive and respectful.

We are looking for people to sponsor these two special fillies! Because of their condition, they need extra vet attention and care. Horse sponsorships are necessary as we seek to care for these special animals at Haven Acres. A monthly horse sponsorship covers the horses’ feed and medical costs as well as offering them a secure, peaceful, and loving family. Please consider joining us on this venture with our two newest members of the herd! For more info, visit our donate page.

Pray that these girls find peace at Haven Acres and that we will be able to train them well!

Giving Tuesday Raised Over $6,000!

“Blessed be the Lord, who daily LOADS us with benefits, the God of our salvation!”

Psalm 68:19 NKJV

Saw this verse on a friend’s wall, and thought it was a perfect description of how I’m feeling today. If my calculations are correct, our amazing friends and family raised around $6,000 yesterday for Haven Acres on #GivingTuesday! I cannot begin to express to you how very humbled and grateful we are by your generosity! THANK YOU!

Welcome Tigger!

Welcome our newest member of the ranch family, Tigger! This little guy was found in the barn this winter and was immediately welcomed with excitement as our new barn cat. Though he started out very scared of people, he has been warming up and purrs when we pet him. He has been for a couple vet checkups and was a very good boy! We are so excited to have him!
