The Thoroughbred Retirement Basis (TRF) has obtained a $60,000 matching reward from the Santulli Household Basis to launch the 2021 Hay Drive. Richard and Peggy Santulli will match each greenback donated to the TRF as much as $60,000 for this marketing campaign. The TRF’s purpose for the 2021 Hay Drive is $120,000 to cowl the price of hay for the almost 500 former racehorses at present of their care all through the nation.
The TRF Hay Drive is without doubt one of the most vital campaigns for the group and might be carried out by unsolicited mail, e mail and social media in addition to one-on-one donation requests. The Thoroughbred Retirement Basis, now in its thirty eighth yr, is the oldest Thoroughbred rescue within the nation and offers sanctuary to a herd of almost 500 retired racehorses.
“Hay is the cornerstone of a horse’s weight loss program and particularly so within the winter months,” mentioned Jessica Paquette, TRF Director of Communication and Annual Fund. “With the rising value of hay all through the nation, we’re grateful for the assist.”
Final yr, with the assistance of the Santulli Household Basis, the TRF surpassed the purpose of $120,000 and the group is hopeful that this yr’s response might be equally as profitable.
“We’re immensely grateful for the continued assist from the Santulli household,” mentioned Patricia Stickney, TRF Government Director. “They’ve been longtime champions of aftercare and we hope that their generosity will encourage others to offer as properly.”
