Horse rescue seeks donations

The Equine Rescue Association, which takes in and cares for orphaned horses, is suffering from the economic downturn, members say.

About 25 volunteers care for approximately 30 horses on land provided by the Marysville School District at 2415 116th St. NE on the Tulalip Indian Reservation. Many of the horses have been abused, neglected or abandoned.

The group's expenses are about $3,500 per month but have been climbing because of the rising cost of feed and veterinary services. The group survives on lesson fees and donations, which have fallen off, according to volunteers.

To donate or for more info: Go to www.era-horsehaven.org or call Vel Moore at 360-658-5494 or Carol Johnson at 425-334-4800.
