Hello and Happy Monday!
THANK YOU to everyone who participated in our Calls to Action as S1377, The Theodore Roosevelt National Park Wild Horse Protection Act, had its FIRST Congressional hearing on the House side.
Chasing Horses Wild Horse Advocates is working hard to get this legislation amended. Your voice adds to ours and gives it strength!
We were told there would not be another Committee meeting before the Mid-term elections. That doesn’t mean our work stops!
We will continue to meet with members of Congress AND have some Calls to Action for all of you as well!
The best way to stay up to date is to subscribe to our blogs. This can be done on the homepage of our website at www.chwha.org
The Committee hearing was broadcast live. If you missed it, you can still watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/live/dwctOSqR-TM
We are a very small non-profit and we depend on your support to continue our advocacy work. Below are a few different ways you can help support us!
We wanted to take this opportunity to say THANK YOU to everyone who has stopped in the Chasing Horses store or mailed us donations for our next online merchandise auction! Our next and final auction for this year will be in November. Stay tuned for details to come!
If you are interested donating items, you can email us at info@chwha.org You can either mail the items directly to us, or you can mail them to the winner after the auction. Donations can also be dropped off at the Chasing Horses store in Medora. Please email us before you venture out to check hours.
The money we raise in our November auction will go to help meet our goal for our Giving Hearts Day matching fund. We need to raise at least $3,000 for this event. Giving Hearts Day is our biggest fundraising event of the year! If you would like to donate to our matching fund, you can do that here: https://secure.everyaction.com/N4iUGAEFDEWvwlIUf05WUQ2
We are also asking for donations to help with some future actions we need to take for S1377. This will include op-eds in local papers and a NEW postcard event! If you are able to help us with the costs involved, you can make your donation here: https://secure.everyaction.com/iUSv_kh1TEutoSBqfvtxvw2
Lastly, if you visited the Chasing Horses store this summer, you may have been one of THOUSANDS of people who took a photo in front of their incredible banner! Many people asked about purchasing this banner or at the very least, a poster with this image.
Chasing Horses has decided to raffle off this banner and give the proceeds to us at Chasing Horses Wild Horse Advocates! This banner is approximately 4’ high by 16’ long! It is made of a durable vinyl and can be used inside or outside! The horse featured on this banner is Stallion Chance (Bella x Sidekick).
To be entered to win, make a donation of $25 or more. You will get one entry for every $25 donation you make! The estimated value is over $1,000!
You can make your tax-deductible donation NOW through MIDNIGHT (MST) on October 15th and be entered to win here: https://secure.everyaction.com/ak-XhpKaqkSHDteBHuftJw2
The winner’s name will be announced on October 16th!
We also hope to have our 2027 calendars available soon! We are putting the finishing touches on them now so stay tuned for details on how you can order yours!
We have taken some HUGE steps to get the wild horses of Theodore Roosevelt National Park the federal protection they deserve! We appreciate your continued support as we continue to work hard to get this across the finish line!
Thank you again for your support and have a great day!
