Dear Jack — the stakes for America’s wild horses and burros have never been higher. 

That’s why this holiday season, we’re asking you to join our Freedom Can’t Wait campaign this Giving Tuesday to make sure our team has the resources necessary to keep these cherished animals wild and free in 2026 and the years ahead. 

To kick off this campaign, a generous donor has agreed to match $100,000 in donations made to AWHC this Giving Tuesday. Jack, that means if you make a donation before midnight tonight, your gift will have double the impact for America’s wild herds. Will you watch our campaign launch video and make a donation right now to help us reach our $100,000 Giving Tuesday goal?

Right now, more than 62,000 captured horses and burros are trapped inside government holding facilities — many for years, or even for life, most with no clear path to freedom.

Some are standing in overcrowded pens, injured with ribs visible. Others are stressed, pacing, fighting for space and calling for their families. Many are young foals separated from their mothers during helicopter chases. And far too many are just one bad policy decision away from the slaughter pipeline.

That’s why freedom can’t wait, Jack.
And that’s why AWHC isn’t slowing down — we’re taking on more.

🚁 More hours on the ground at roundups.
🔍 More watchdog investigations inside government holding facilities.
🇺🇸 More pressure in Washington to protect the slaughter ban and rein in the Bureau of Land Management (BLM).
🏛️ More litigation to end cruel roundup practices altogether.
🐴 More investment in humane conservation strategies and advocacy to prove there’s a better way.
🦺 More land restoration, rescue support, and fieldwork than ever before.

Your Giving Tuesday gift will support emergency rescues, expose cruelty inside holding facilities and during roundups, pressure lawmakers to protect the slaughter ban, and power the litigation and investigations needed to stop brutal helicopter roundups altogether. 

And this year, your support ensures AWHC can scale up — not hold back — ahead of the largest planned roundup in history.

Every click, every gift, is a lifeline — your 2x-matched gift today isn’t just a donation — it’s a critical part of the fight to save wild horses whose very lives hang in the balance. Jack, will you make a 2X-matched gift right now to help us hit our $100,000 goal and power our work to protect the lives of America’s wild horses and burros?

Thank you for showing up when it matters most.
