Equilab has teamed up with the EQUUS Foundation to offer the EQUUS Foundation Challenge during the month of December. How many miles will you ride during December? Will it be 15, 30, 60, or 120 miles?
“Over 1 million equestrians around the world use the Equilab app to track their rides, manage their horses, and connect with other riders. We are hoping that they will all join the challenge and take the EQUUS Foundation #HorseProtector Pledge,” said Lynn Coakley, EQUUS Foundation President.
If you are a current user, all you need to do is sign in, join the challenge, choose one of the four goals – 15, 30, 60 or 120 miles — and click the link to take the EQUUS Foundation’s #Horseprotector Pledge.
#HorseProtectors are individuals who have taken our pledge to protect America’s horses from peril! Too many horses in America need a lifeline when their owners cannot, or no longer wish to, care for their horses.
The EQUUS Foundation is the only U.S.-based public charity and accrediting body with the dual purpose of ensuring the safety and comfort of equines throughout their lives and promoting opportunities to cultivate the special bond between horse and human.
Whether you are a competing equestrian, a pleasure rider, or someone who loves horses – you can help ensure that America’s horses live in comfort and with purpose and dignity throughout their lives by LENDING YOUR VOICE!
