Rescue Center,
and the Cambria School District FFA program
Once again, we are donating
EQ-Wine Covers products to worthy Non-Profit Organizations...
The EQ-Wine Foundation is proud to be in our 15th year of making donations
to worthy equestrian based rescue and welfare groups. We will donate EQ-Wine Covers Co. products to groups that
can
document their needs, as well as accomplishments in their field of work. The Foundation cannot donate large buildings,
or arena covers. We do offer pasture shelters, or other small structures shown on the EQ-Wine Covers website. Please
do not ask for several units as some groups have. We must spread this opportunity around to as many worthwhile charities as
possible. Remember, this comes out of our pocket, after expenses, taxes, labor, and other costs necessary in running this
business.
The Foundation is well aware that there are
many worthy organizations in need of help. We are also painfully aware of fraudulent individuals masquerading as charities,
if only for the tax breaks and free donations. After our debacle with a San Miguel, CA based "Rescue"operation,
we now research the operation, operators, and goals before granting materials, and assistance. It is a sad day when people
hide behind needy animals, to commit their questionable deeds. We will not donate to any group that simply warehouses horses
for fundraising purposes, and just raises money for the operators to live on.
