Dear Jack,
I’m thrilled to share incredible news: thanks to your generosity, we reached our $100,000 Giving Tuesday goal!
Because you stepped up, every dollar was doubled. And because of you, we are entering 2026 — a defining year for America’s wild horses and burros — with renewed strength, and the ability to do more of the work this moment demands.
Thanks to your Giving Tuesday gift, AWHC can begin to broaden our work on the ground, extend our reach in Washington, strengthen our legal and investigative work, and start to advocate for and implement humane conservation strategies at a scale this crisis requires.
And while Giving Tuesday has wrapped, our work in these final weeks of the year is just as essential. This momentum you’ve helped build must carry us forward — the threats facing wild horses are escalating, and meeting them requires sustained commitment.
Your support ensures AWHC is prepared to rise to the challenges ahead in 2026 — a year that will demand even greater effort and resolve from all of us:
- Federal plans in Nevada for the largest wild horse roundup in U.S. history
- Over 62,000 once-wild horses and burros confined in holding facilities with no clear path to freedom
- Increasing pressure on the slaughter ban and humane reforms
- A critical need for deeper field monitoring, investigations, and legal action
Giving Tuesday isn’t just a fundraising day for AWHC. It’s a powerful reminder of what this community believes: that wild horses deserve safety, dignity, and a future on the public lands they call home.
And this year, Jack, your actions made that belief unmistakably clear.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for standing with us, for believing in this mission, and for helping AWHC meet this critical moment with the strength it demands.
With deep gratitude,
Patricia Miller
Board Chair
American Wild Horse Conservation
