Megan Berner and Grace Johnson of Colorado Horse Rescue had the privilege of attending the American Horse Publications Equine Media Conference in Lexington, Kentucky. 🐴🤩
The conference brought together journalists, photographers, marketers, nonprofit leaders, and professionals from across the equine industry, creating a dynamic environment for collaboration and the exchange of ideas. It was a powerful reminder of the passion that drives the horse world and the role thoughtful storytelling plays in informing, inspiring, and connecting the equine community.
CHR was honored to receive 2nd place in the nonprofit video category for Forging a Future Where Hope Lives, the short film created for last year’s gala. While the award recognizes the storytelling and craftsmanship behind the film, the real honor is celebrating the community that powers our mission: volunteers, adopters, donors, and supporters whose commitment creates brighter futures for horses. 💙
Congratulations to The Foundation for the Horse on its well deserved first place award for the video created for the American Association of Equine Practitioners (AAEP) conference, and for the important work the organization continues to do on behalf of horses everywhere. 👏
The experience sparked new ideas, meaningful connections, and a renewed appreciation for the people and organizations shaping the future of the equine industry. Thank you to American Horse Publications for creating a space that celebrates collaboration and the people dedicated to advancing equine media.
