Saving animal lives with the Tenerife Horse Rescue Organisation
Donation amount: 5735,00€
A new year also means that there is a new donation project. You, as a Royal Rider, had the chance to decide which organization we would support for the next six months.
The choices were:
- First horse flap
- Tenerife Horse Rescue
Both projects have to do with animal welfare. We Royal Riders love animals more than anything and want to reduce the suffering of animals. Both projects are very important to give animals a better life. After a vote on Instagram, the decision narrowly went to the Tenerife Horse Rescue Organisation.
This great organization is based in Tenerife. The island is beautiful and sunny, but unfortunately animal welfare is not a top priority there. You can find kittens in trash cans, puppies tied to fences, and horses kept in garages. If you take a closer look, you can also see pregnant cats with diseases, dogs with deadly parasites as well as horses that are ridden much too young or with rusty bits and old saddles on bloody withers.
For many islanders, this is a terrible sight, which is why, among other things, the organization Tenerife Horse Rescue was founded. The main focus is on the horses. The organization gives horses that need a second chance a home for the rest of their lives. In the meantime, not only horses are rescued, but also animals such as dogs, cats, birds, ducks, guinea pigs, goats, pigs, turtles and hamsters. So the organization has become a real animal paradise, where the animals can finally enjoy a beautiful life.
But that's not all that makes this organization so special. The topic of sustainability also plays a major role. All electricity comes from solar energy. In addition, horse manure is used for heating and all food waste is composted there. The place of residence is also built entirely from recycled materials and clay.
So we will donate one percent of our net sales to Tenerife Horse Rescue for the next six months.
Finally, we want to say THANK YOU again!
Thank you as a Royal Rider for supporting our donation projects so well and for allowing us to do a lot of good!
