Events
Throughout the year we participate in various fundraisers and community outreach events. These events are opportunities to raise monetary support but also, most importantly, to educate and encourage community involvement. We discuss horse care, basic needs, expenses, abuse and neglect. We meet wonderful new people, inspire new volunteers, and seek to empower others with the knowledge to make appropriate horse ownership decisions.
All of our upcoming events are listed below. If you would like more information about an event or are interested in volunteering, please contact us, list your area or event of interest in the comments section, and one of our board members will get back to you with details to get you started!

Collective Force Foundation Presents
LOWCOUNTRY GIVING DAY
Tuesday, September 19, 2017
3 - 9 pm, RIVERDOGS STADIUM
|
H.O.P.E. Acres Rescue is once again participating in Lowcountry Giving Day which is part of National Give Local Day. All donations received on September 19, 2017 will go directly toward the launch of "Honey's Fund". This fund is being developed in honor of our very own Honey, who was rescued this year with a very extensive injury which was left untreated for many months. Subsequently she developed a severe infection that almost cost Honey her life. This beautiful mare has now undergone her fourth procedure to date with the assistance of our local veterinarian, Dr. Justin Miller (pictured with Honey) of Charleston Equine Clinic and Orthopedic Specialist, Dr. Caldwell of Auburn University. Our goal with this fund is to build a reserve for future horses who suffer severe neglect or tragedy requiring extensive medical treatment. As a non-profit entity, the monetary backing to support these rehabilitations can take a toll on us financially as we typically care for 15-20 horses on the farm at any given time. "Honey's Fund" will provide the monetary platform allowing us to take immediate action to provide medical treatment to those in need without the necessity to raise the funds per instance.
|
If you would like to contribute to this fund, please click the donate button and select "Honey's Fund" so that we can appropriately allocate your gift. On Tuesday, you can also make a donation at any South State Bank location or online until 11:50 pm through Bidr at https://text.gives/horse.
We thank you for your consideration, kind gift and support of our mission!

100% of your donation will be designated for Honey's Fund and will provide emergency medical treatment to future rescues who require medical intervention to save their lives as a result of abuse and neglect.

Have you wanted to start volunteering at H.O.P.E. Acres? This is your day! Bring your friends, spouse, kids, neighbors, co-workers, sturdy close-toed shoes, and lots of smiles!
We are a 100% volunteer organization which means that we have zero, none, not even one paid member of our organization - ever. Even our President and all of our board members are volunteers. Here's your chance to see what makes us so passionate about volunteering and what keeps us coming back! We will start the day with some introductions and then get everyone engaged in some work around the farm. What you should expect: fence building and repair, water trough cleaning, hay cleanup, horse grooming, weed eating, lawn mowing, pressure washing, general shenanigans, and loads of fun! We love what we do and want to make sure you have fun volunteering too! Things we could use: Pressure washers, weed eaters, construction savvy people, and horse savvy people! HOPE to see y'all there! |
