Friend,

Do you have a few minutes? Sahara’s story of survival was so moving that I had to make sure you saw it. I hope you’ll take a moment to read it now and support the Humane Society Legislative Fund in our work to end horse cruelty and protect all animals from abuse. ([link removed])

HSLF won’t stand aside while thousands of horses are suffering. Whether they’ve fallen victim to the predatory horse slaughter industry or are being mutilated and tortured just for a blue ribbon, we are standing up to protect them. But we rely on your generous support to continue this lifesaving work and make ending animal suffering a top priority in Congress.

Please, will you make a gift of $20 or more to HSLF now to help us reach our $50,000 goal, before our deadline on April 30, to continue our urgent fight for horses and all animals that need us? ([link removed])

Thank you,

Sara Amundson

Friend,

Sahara was a shy and gentle mare who was marked and sold to be slaughtered for human consumption. She was doomed to a gruesome death from being bludgeoned and dismembered but was saved at the last minute when the Illinois slaughterhouse she was sent to was shut down.

Sahara was one of the lucky ones who was rescued and got to live out the rest of her days in peace at the Humane Society of the United States’ Black Beauty Ranch. Even though slaughterhouses have all been shuttered in the U.S., almost 20,000 horses from the U.S. are still slaughtered every year because it is legal to transport these horses across our borders to slaughterhouses in Canada and Mexico.

Will you help the Humane Society Legislative Fund fight to protect horses like Sahara and win the vital protections that all animals deserve by making a donation of $20 or more today? We’re up against our April 30 fundraising deadline, and we’re counting on your support to reach our $50,000 goal! ([link removed])

After being saved, Sahara enjoyed a peaceful home with other rescued animals and their human caretakers. She needed a little extra encouragement to play and ask for treats, but she never had to worry about falling victim to senseless cruelty again.

But we can’t rescue every horse and instead need to fix the problem at the source. Right now, we’re fighting to end the abuse of horses from all angles by passing legislation to end horse slaughter and working with the U.S. Department of Agriculture to strengthen its Horse Protection Act regulations to finally end the cruel act of soring.

We can’t afford to scale back our advocacy for animals and let government officials ignore their suffering. But that’s exactly what could happen if we miss our goal, so please:

Can we count on you to make a gift to HSLF today—before our crucial deadline—so we can keep fighting to protect horses like Sahara and other vulnerable animals across the country and the world? ([link removed])

Thank you for your compassionate support for all animals,

Sara Amundson Signature
