Dear Friends,Happy Holidays!
I want to extend our heartfelt gratitude for your support of After the Finish Line. I know people want to help the Thoroughbreds, yet they don't know how or who to donate to. ATFL will direct your funds to Thoroughbreds in need throughout the United States. Donate to satisfy your need to believe you can effect change to make a better life for the Thoroughbreds. No matter what amount you are able to contribute, your donation <http://www.afterthefinishline.org/donations.htm> to ATFL will give you hope for the horses. Your donation makes dreams come true.In 2008 ATFL funded United Pegasus Foundation, CANTER - Ohio, Friends of Ferdinand, GEVA, ReRun, Tranquility Farm, Bright Futures, Orphan Acres, Bella Horse Rescue, Heaven Can Wait, Whimsical Horse Rescue, Second Chance Rescue, Another Chance 4 Horses, The Golden Carrot, Colorado Horse Rescue and Summerwinds Stables. Our Mims Retirement Haven received a donation of a painting by Turkoman, who earned $2 million racing. ATFL also donated horse blankets.The Grants and Emergency Funds awarded by ATFL were used to rescue Thoroughbreds at auction and from trainers from going to slaughter, to support horses seized by the authorities for neglect, for sponsorship of broodmares in foal rescued from a feedlot, for bone chip and hernia surgery, an emergency vet call for a colic episode, supplements for aged horses, and farrier, vet, x-rays, ultrasounds, chiropractor, vaccination, dental, hay, feed, medication, and boarding expenses. Needless to say, it's been a busy year! With the economic downturn ATFL is receiving more funding requests. We need your help to reach our funding goals. Please donate <http://www.afterthefinishline.org/donations.htm> what you can. Small donations add up to a lot. Our board members do not receive a salary.
