An Unforgettable Evening: Stay Wild LA

On Thursday, Sept. 19, at our Stay Wild LA event in Santa Monica, AWHC had the honor of presenting the 2024 Freedom Award to American designer, entrepreneur, philanthropist, and wild horse advocate Jenni Kayne.  This award is given to individuals who have made a lasting impact on our mission to keep wild horses wild. Jenni has shown unwavering dedication—raising awareness within the public and equestrian communities, rallying support, and directly contributing to our initiatives. She embodies the spirit of this award with her passion, grace, and resolve to fight for the freedom of America’s wild horses. We couldn’t be more proud to honor her. 
Other event highlights included: A heartfelt speech by DJ and AWHC Ambassador Brandi Cyrus about her deep connection to wild horses and why she supports AWHC’s work. She's pictured below with a photo by WilsonAxpe Photoadvocacy

And our amazing guests who left inspired to join the fight for the freedom of wild horses on our western public lands.
Special thanks to our AWHC ambassadors Kaitlynn Carter, Chloe Gosselin (pictured below), Katie Nehra, Kimerlee Curyl Photography and our host committee members for making this night a powerful moment in the history of the wild horse conservation movement.
