Heart of Phoenix Equine Rescue (HoP) is the largest and most effective equine advocacy organization in West Virginia. Operating through much of the Appalachia with a network of volunteers and partners their goal is to reach, and help, as many horses in need as possible. In addition to direct animal assistance HoP also provides equine education to owners and law enforcement. With major capital improvements HoP will utilize their current land and resources to assist more than 50% more horses in transition over the next three years, providing more at-risk horses with humane transitions and increasing adoptions in the region.
