Giving those a Voice that can't Speak for Themselves

Our Animal Rescue Projects at Stumpy's Ranch provides a Home for abandoned and neglected Horses and other Livestock.

Our Motto for our Animal Rescue Projects is Giving Those a Voice that cannot Speak for Themselves.

Our Animal Rescue Projects require a lot of effort and money in maintaining a happy and healthy lifestyle for our Rescued Animals by providing them a healthy environment, proper food, nutrition and care.

By no ill intent of their own, many people are unable to take care of their animals due to economic distress. There are many horses and other livestock that are being neglected and abandoned because their owners cannot take proper care of them anymore.

Stumpy's Ranch is on a major Capital Campaign to acquire a larger facility which will enable us to help as many horses and other livestock as we possibly can.

In these stressing economic times, horses are being neglected and abandoned in alarmingly tremendous numbers. People are being forced to give up their horses or neglect or abandon them and they are not receiving the proper care that they should because their owners can no longer afford to care for them.

When it comes down to affording their horse or putting food on the table and gas in their car, there is only one choice these people can make, their family and livelihood must come first.

A horse is just like a dog or cat, they become a member of a person's family. How would you feel if you no longer could afford your dog or cat and were forced to give him/her up.

Our hearts go out to each and every person suffering this situation, but especially to the horses and other livestock facing unknown fates.

Stumpy's Ranch is answering a silent call for help by Giving Those a Voice that can't Speak for Themselves, thus, our Motto.

We need to obtain a larger acre farm that will enable us to help more people forced to give up their animals because they can no longer afford them. Horses and other livestock alike.

Most of our rescued animals were sent out to graze in barren pastures and did not get the food and nutrition for proper maintenance of life and limb let alone the lack of vaccinations or their hooves trimmed in who knows how long because their owners could not afford those costs.

This new facility will also become the permanent home of Stumpy's Ranch and Animal Rescue.

You will be happy to know that as soon as Stumpy's Ranch acquires this property, we intend to Farmland Preserve it so the beauty and pureness can be retained.

Therefore, not only will you and/or your company help us help the many animals and people in these diverse times, but you will be ensuring that the farm purchased by Stumpy's Ranch will always remain a non-profit organization.

There are many ways you can help us help as many Animals as we can, here are just Two!

1. If you can make a donation, in any amount or any usable kind, it will help.

2. If your company has a matching gift program, please gather your co-workers together and whatever amount you and your co-workers contribute, your company will match that amount!

If you can help us, or work for a Company that can help us help the Animals in need, please contact us or have someone in the HR department contact us. All donations of at least $100,000.00 towards this Campaign will be given permanent acknowledgment and noted as a sponsor at all of our activities as per their permission and specifications.
