from the Standardbred Retirement Foundation

Millstone Township, NJ — The Standardbred Retirement Foundation’s 12 Days of Giving campaign has received wonderful support with gifts of hay for a month for the fillies and mares, rehabilitation for one from the kill pen, transporting one to Kentucky for retirement, therapeutic shoes, dental care, a trip from the kill pen to quarantine, halters, hoof care, filling the hayloft for the boys, and senior feed.

SRF is very grateful for the generous support as the 12 days come to an end but there are still two needs left — retiring a horse to your care, and a sponsor for SRF’s Elitlopp raffle trip.

The gifts for the 12 Days of Giving to benefit the 208 trotters and pacers under SRF’s full care are much appreciated. Thanks to the special donors who made it a success:
