Bright Futures Farm is an equine charity whose primary focus is re-homing off the track Thoroughbreds...horses that can no longer race due to disinterest or injury…horses unwanted by their owners and sent to auction where most are purchased for slaughter.  Our dedication has grown to include providing sanctuary for older horses that are unwanted after their "useful years" are over, including older stallions that cannot be gelded due to the risk of complications.

We are always in need of foster homes.  When you foster a horse you help us save one more from harm.  Fostering expenses are tax-deductible.  If you have room, please ask us about our foster program.

Blue, Hope and Shiloh need help

Blue, Hope and Shiloh came from the Sugar Creek, OH auction last October.  They spent the winter at a farm in Greenville, OH where they did not receive farrier or dental care, nor enough to eat.  We moved Hope and Shiloh to Triple B Rescue in Chillicothe, OH and Blue went to foster care with Lori R. in Cincinnati, OH.

If you can assist in any way with their initial professional needs, we would greatly appreciate it.
