Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation Hay Drive

STACK IT UP!
TRF Launches the Spring 2010 Hay Drive

TRF launched a new fundraising drive this year: the Hay Drive. By May 1, 2010, TRF hopes to raise $300,000 to help feed its herd of 1200 retired thoroughbred racehorses. This fund drive will be primarily through the internet and giving by text.

“We chose our hay usage as the illustration for raising these funds because hay is the mainstay of our horses’ winter diet. People don’t realize what it means to feed 1200 horses. By talking in terms of the number of bales of hay it takes, we hope that people can realize the magnitude of what the TRF does.” explained TRF’s Executive Director, Diana Pikulski.

You can sponsor as many bales as you choose at $5 each.
