On April 23-24, Return to Freedom Mustang Youth Coalition and volunteers participated in the ASPCA’s “Save A Horse Day” at Return to Freedom’s Wild Horse Sanctuary in San Luis Obispo! Over $13,000 was raised for the horses!

We all pitched in to clean up the area for ten newly arrived wild horses who were removed from their range last fall. The horses were in such a depleted condition, it took months for them to gain enough strength to make the trip to California. The weekend was spent feeding, clearing, socializing the horses, learning from professional film makers about photography and photo-journalism to create interviews and social media pieces supporting wild horse conservation.

Special thanks to the Carlson family, our wonderful youth volunteers and moms, Victory Tischler – Blue, Arlene Gawne, Angela Kelly and Aurora!
