Send a mustang to college... no pony left behind
Education is key to success requiring thousands of dollars and hours of positive contact with humans. Wild horses need a chance to reach their full potential through expensive professional training. Windhorse Relations has designed a program where Mustangs move through 5 levels of education. At level II, as "working students", Windhorse Mustangs become teachers and begin giving back.
What will your Windhorse sponsor dollars create?
- A new expanded image of the American Wild Horse
- Each horse will influence thousands of Americans during its' career.
- As ambassadors, the Windhorse herd will open up new careers for more Mustangs that need homes and education
- As the Mustang learns, the human also learns.
All, 100%, of your college fund dollars goes towards their professional education. Windhorse will send you pictures of their training and progress so you can join with us in our journey.
