SRF depends on the support of the Elitlopp/Disney raffle fundraiser every year. There was concern this year as Covid 19 peaked just as the fundraiser launched, yet the the support has been heartwarming and generous, and speaks volumes for those who have a love and respect for these animals.
With all of SRF's social fundraisers cancelled; adoptions stalled, due to temporary closure of the leased farm; support for this fundraiser is very much needed. "Getting feed to the nearly 400 horses every morning, and providing medical care are the priorities. Donations and the sale of raffle tickets are the only source of income right now to get this done," shared Judy Bokman, SRF's Director.
The drawing will take place on Wednesday, April 29, 2020 at 5:30pm. Tickets are $25 each. To purchase please call the SRF office at (609) 738-3255, or email us at SRFHorsesandkids@gmail.com.
Donations can be made at https://www.adoptahorse.org/ donate, by mail at SRF PO Box 312, Millstone Twp., NJ 08535, or the farm address at SRF 42 Arneytown-Hornerstown Rd, Cream Ridge, NJ 08514, or by calling SRF's office (609) 738-3255. SRF is grateful to each and everyone who is supporting this effort and making much needed tax-deductible donations to feed these horses during this pandemic.
Every animal is at the mercy of the care it is in, for some, that is a wonderful place to be, but that is not the case for all. SRF, since 1989, being the model program, the oldest, most productive organization of its kind remains the guardian for its horses, even when adopted, so no horse is at risk again.
