An Important Letter from an AWHC Board Member

Support Wild Horses: A Message from AWHC Board MemberSupport Wild Horses: A Message from AWHC Board Member

Dear Supporter,

My name is Dustin Brown, and I joined American Wild Horse Conservation (formerly American Wild Horse Campaign)'s board last year. I wanted to take a moment to tell you why I’m so proud to be a part of AWHC -- and why I hope you’ll join me before our December 31 fundraising deadline.

Horses have always been special to me -- you can see a photo of my mustang Leroy and I below. And when I saw how many threats wild horses like him are facing, from slaughter to mass capture and sterilization, I knew I had to do something. I had to be their voice.

There’s a big difference between rescue and prevention. Although rescue is important, it’s like trying to keep an empty bucket under a faucet that never stops flowing. We need to turn off the faucet -- which is why AWHC focuses our work on sustainable, humane management that keeps wild horses and burros wild and free and on our public lands.

I know of no other non-profit as efficient, dedicated, and impactful as AWHC. The team runs a lean operation, activates a powerful movement, and fights aggressively in every arena -- from the range to the courtroom. I’ve become a board member because I trust that my time and money is going to go as far as it can to protect wild horses, and you can trust that too.

So I’m asking you to join me today in helping us reach our $100,000 end of year goal. And if you give right now, your gift will be matched, and have double the impact for wild horses. Please, donate today.

Sincerely,

Dustin Brown, AWHC Board Member
