Our Mission Statement HEART of Tucson is a non-profit, pro-horse equine rescue organization
run entirely by volunteers. Our mission is two-fold. HEART of Tucson rescues horses
of all breeds that are in urgent need of care. We rescue horses that
perhaps have been neglected, abandoned or abused. Secondly, our mission
is to instruct and raise awareness of the general public about what it
takes to own a horse including feeding, grooming, tack, training, boarding,
veterinary care and all costs associated with owning a horse.
HEART of Tucson's goal is to rehabilitate rescued horses and then find suitable
homes for these equines. We provide the food, the supplements, farrier
service, veterinary care, training, love and kindness, all in a safe
haven. By educating the public of horse ownership through on-site,
hands-on seminars and workshops, HEART of Tucson's goal is to stop the cycle
of abuse and neglect that potentially could occur to these animals.
We are pro-active and passionate about rescuing horses that might otherwise
end up at auction houses and perhaps go to inhumane slaughter houses
in Mexico.
HEART of Tucson is an Arizona nonprofit corporation. We are applying for 501(c)(3) tax exempt status with the IRS.
