Portable Horse Tilt Chute
The Tilt Chute Project will provide a portable, padded stall that safely restrains and tilts horses for vet care, hoof trimming, and routine handling. Many of the horses we take in, including Mustangs and domestic horses, have had limited or no handling, and our current chutes are not always safe for these procedures. Volunteers and professionals can be at risk of injury, and the horses can become stressed. A tilt chute not only keeps everyone safe, it also allows us to assist other local rescues and horse owners with unhandled or fearful horses. This project ensures safer, less stressful care for the horses in our community.
The total cost of the horse tilt chute is $46,582. This includes the purchase of the device and shipping from the supplier's location in Oklahoma to our rescue in Pennsylvania. We are actively applying for grants and raising funds to make this project a reality.
To donate to this project, please include a note or memo stating your donation is for the Horse Tilt Chute. Every contribution, big or small, brings us closer to safer, stress-free care for our horses. Your support truly makes a difference!

Outdoor Arena for Horses & Heroes
PROJECT COMPLETE!
Thanks to our generous donors and grant support, the arena itself is now complete! We are incredibly grateful to everyone who helped make this project possible.
We are still working to provide some additional necessities for the arena, including a wheelchair-accessible portable restroom, and we are looking for donations of arena equipment such as jumping obstacles, cavaletti, and ground poles.
Interested in helping? Contact us to learn how you can donate.
The Outdoor Arena Project will provide a safe, controlled, and enclosed environment to support the Horses & Heroes program and related equine-assisted activities. This space is essential for facilitating structured interactions between veterans and horses, allowing for groundwork, handling, and guided sessions in a setting designed to promote safety, consistency, and accessibility regardless of weather conditions. It will also be used to support the rehabilitation and training of horses as needed.
