I am interested in rescue groups for animals. I have been to a few humane societies, so I wanted to do a story on a rescue group that did not have anything to do with dogs or cats. I saw Crosswinds on the Internet and realized that it was not far and thought the organization sounded interesting.
Crosswinds Equine Rescue is a nonprofit organization that takes in abused unwanted horses and buys those that are for sale at slaughter houses. The group takes them in and rehabilitates the horses so they can be adopted out to new homes.
If you’d like to help out the organization, you can visit their Web site or call them at 217-832-2010, 8 am-9 pm Central Time. They also accept donations which help pay for the horses’ food and other things that the horses would need. If there is a certain horse that you like, you can sponsor that horse.
