The Mission and ongoing goal of CCHR is to rescue abandoned, abused, neglected and slaughter-bound horses and to provide them with a second chance for healthy and productive lives. CCHR also rescues horses whose owners can no longer afford to care for them. CCHR provides shelter, food, veterinary care, farrier services, rehabilitation, and adoption services for the horses in its care. It also offers long-term sanctuary to disabled and elderly horses. With a combination of specialized care and loving support, all horses rescued by CCHR are given the opportunity to heal, thrive and to lead happy and peaceful lives. CCHR is an all-volunteer organization, there are no salaries paid. CCHR relies on the generous support of donors, volunteers, sponsors, and grants. CCHR will always strive to offer Rescue, Rehabilitation, and Refuge to these beautiful and treasured animals.
