Wild Mustang/Burro Campaigns

The following is from the American Wild Horse Conservation: We can hardly believe it, Meredith: In less than 48 hours it will be Giving Tuesday — our biggest fundraising day of the year. This year, we're aiming to raise $100,000 to fuel our critical work in saving the freedom of wild horses and burros on the public lands they call home. Their freedom can’t wait, Meredith. Can we count on your support to help us reach this goal? MAKE YOUR EARLY GIFT NOW And here’s the best part: A generous donor has pledged to match every contribution towards our $100,000 goal. That means your donation will be doubled — giving us double the power to protect our cherished wild horses and burros. Your gift will:  DOUBLE our ability to fight against the largest roundup in U.S. history — keeping 5,000 horses wild and free where they belong. DOUBLE our legal efforts to fight back in court to protect wild horses’ rights and their natural habitats for generations to come. DOUBLE our advocacy work to demand fair, humane, and sustainable policies like strengthening the federal slaughter ban and stopping the Bureau of Land Management’s (BLM) $25 sale program that is sending horses to slaughter. Double the impact. Double the progress. This is the moment that will define our next decade. As Giving Tuesday approaches, we’re asking you to help us make the most of this opportunity. Your gift today will go TWICE as far, helping us continue to lead the fight for wild horses and burros across the West. MAKE YOUR EARLY GIFT NOW Thank you for being a vital part of this mission. Together, we can protect the wild horses and burros who need us most. AWHC Team ...

The following is from the American Wild Horse Conservation: Every victory we’ve earned together started with dedicated supporters like you. And today, we want to show you just how powerful this community truly is. Because of you, we’ve shut down slaughter-linked programs, stopped mass eradications, and documented every cruel roundup — every chase, every injury, every loss. But now we face one of the most dangerous moments wild horses have seen in a generation, and Meredith, their freedom can’t wait. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is preparing for the largest roundup in U.S. history — nearly 5,000 horses are being targeted in Nevada for removal. California’s remaining herds — from Mono Lake to Devil’s Garden — are at risk of disappearing entirely. Congress could again attempt to strip the federal slaughter ban, putting tens of thousands of horses at risk. And the BLM's $25 Sale Program continues to funnel once-wild horses and burros into kill pens Meredith, this is what we are up against in 2026 as we enter AWHC’s 10th year — a decade defined by relentless advocacy, groundbreaking investigations, and victories earned because we refused to back down. To meet the challenges of this milestone year, we must start from a place of strength. That’s why we’ve started our Giving Tuesday fundraiser early — to ensure we have the resources necessary to fight back against these threats to our wild herds in the new year. Thanks to a generous donor, every donation will be matched up to $100,000, meaning your gift will go twice as far in the fight ahead. Please help us build early momentum with an early Giving Tuesday gift: MAKE YOUR EARLY GIFT NOW With gratitude, Patricia Miller Board Chair American Wild Horse Conservation ...

The following is from the American Wild Horse Conservation: The countdown to Giving Tuesday begins now. Our BIGGEST fundraising day of the year is less than four days away – and this year, we’re setting an ambitious goal to raise $100,000 to protect wild horses and burros in 2026. Before Giving Tuesday arrives, we need to share the truth about what lies ahead in the new year for America’s wild horses and burros — and why this year, our campaign theme for the giving season, Freedom Can’t Wait, is more urgent than ever MAKE YOUR EARLY GIFT NOW Despite the progress our community has made, Meredith, wild horses and burros face their darkest hour yet: The largest roundup in U.S. history is coming. In 2026, the BLM plans to remove nearly 5,000 horses in Nevada — the largest planned round up in history — a single operation that would shatter family bands, orphan foals, and decimate entire herds. The federal slaughter ban is at risk — again. Each year in Congress, opponents try to gut the very protections that keep tens of thousands of horses from being trucked to slaughter. The BLM’s $25 Sale Program continues to funnel horses into kill pens. While the Adoption Incentive Program has been terminated, the federal agency continues to exploit it’s Sale Authority Program. This allows individuals to buy horses and burros for just $25 each, creating a possible pipeline to slaughter. Meredith: This is the landscape we face as we enter 2026 — AWHC’s 10th year as the nation’s leading voice for wild horse and burro freedom. But this milestone year is not just a celebration. It’s a turning point. How we begin the new year will decide whether wild horses remain free for generations to come. That’s why this Giving Tuesday, a generous donor will MATCH every gift — up to $100,000. Your doubled gift will fuel:

• Litigation to end catastrophic roundups
• Field investigations to expose abuse
• Legislative work to protect — and strengthen — the federal slaughter ban
• On-the-range humane fertility control
• Protection for America’s most at-risk herds

Wild horses cannot wait. And neither can we. Every dollar we raise will help us fight back for our wild herds. Can we count on you to help us get a strong start toward our $100,000 goal? MAKE YOUR EARLY GIFT NOW With gratitude, American Wild Horse Conservation ...

The following is from the American Wild Horse Conservation: I’m so grateful to share some truly wonderful news with you today: Thanks to the generosity of donors like you, we reached — and unlocked — the full $25,000 Land Fund match. Because of you every single dollar was doubled. Because of you, urgent restoration work at the Fish Springs Land Preserve can now begin. And because of you, Meredith, young horses like Neptune — and the entire Fish Springs herd — will see their home start to heal.Thank you.  As the Thanksgiving holiday approaches, I want you to know how deeply grateful we are for this community. Your compassion, your belief in this mission, and your love for America’s wild horses are at the heart of everything we do. You’ve given the Fish Springs herd — and all of us at AWHC — something truly meaningful to be thankful for this season. And as we look ahead, we’re also preparing for Giving Tuesday, one of the most impactful days of the year for wild horse protection. Thanks to your support, we’re heading into the season of giving with strength, momentum, and a renewed sense of hope for the work ahead. Over the coming weeks, our Nevada field team will begin laying the groundwork for this Fish Springs recovery effort. While this is just the beginning, we’ll keep you updated every step of the way so you can see the impact of your generosity in action. These donations will go far in beginning the reseeding process of the lands the Fish Springs herd calls home. With gratitude, Patricia Miller Board Chair American Wild Horse Conservation ...

The following is from the American Wild Horse Conservation: We’re down to the final hours to unlock our $25,000 Land Fund match, and we still have a long way to go. The deadline is tomorrow at midnight, and the wildlife that calls Fish Springs home can’t afford for us to fall short. Will you make a 2X-matched donation to our Land Fund to help us reach our $25,000 goal and restore our Fish Springs land preserve? DOUBLE MY DONATION When the Conner Fire tore through Nevada at the beginning of summer, it scorched critical habitat of our Fish Springs Land Preserve — including key habitat for the wild horses who depend on this land for forage, water, and safety. This community has already stepped up in incredible ways. But to have the resources necessary for the restoration work this land requires, we need to unlock the full match — and we’re not there yet. Every donation you make between now and tomorrow at midnight will be doubled, up to $25,000. With $11,218 left to go, Meredith, will you help us close the gap with a 2X-matched gift today? DOUBLE MY DONATION Your support will directly fund critical restoration efforts like reseeding burned areas, repairing damaged habitat, and rebuilding natural water sources across the preserve. We’re almost there — but we can’t finish this without you. Thank you for powering this important work. — The AWHC Team ...
