Starlight Stables and Mustang Sanctuary is grateful to announce that we are the recipient of a DAFgiving360 grant. We would like to give heartfelt thanks to the donor that made this possible. It means more to us than you can ever know.
We are honored to receive this grant in honor of the memory of equine advocate Catherine Kirby. Catherine Kirby was the founder and leader of one of our sister sanctuaries Noble Horse Sanctuary for many years. Sadly, in December Catherine lost her battle with cancer. We are indebted to the work Catherine did in the sanctuary community. We feel so appreciative of all of the volunteers at Noble Sanctuary and especially her husband Tim who has worked tirelessly to help us with infrastructure for our sanctuary.
Without grants like these and donations we would not be able to bring our dreams to reality. We are currently building infrastructure to allow us to save more horses. We plan to use this grant to help support Lady, a beautiful grey mustang that we adopted from Noble Sanctuary. Lady is approximately 30 years old and requires special medical and dietary care. This will also help us with costs from care for Santana who is recovering from a broken coffin bone and is Lady's favorite companion at our sanctuary.
