We are Happy to Introduce Dude!

March 14, 2018

Hi all,

It been a long time in the making to reach this point, but we have finally added a new horse to our program. Dude is a thoroughbred 15-year-old who stands at 15.2 hands. Dude has settled in nicely to our program and loves the other on-campus horses. He was kindly donated to the program, and the money raised in this fundraiser went toward his veterinary care and making sure he had a comfortable transition to UMD. He is a loving, friendly, and slightly camera shy guy who has stolen the hearts of our entire club. Thank you all for your generous donations. 

 

 

Horse Search Update!

February 01, 2017

The Maryland Equestrian Club has worked diligently since the end of this fundraiser to find that perfect horse for our program. We are so happy to give you all an update stating that we have a growing list of prospective horses currently being looked at. Our selective process in securing a new horse will allow us to purchase the best candidate that is safe, beginner friendly, and will fit in well with our current herd. Stay tuned for further updates and thank you again for your generous contributions!

We've Reached the End

December 18, 2016

As our 30 day campaign has reached the end of its time, we have raised $4,589. Although we did not reach our goal of $7,500, we now have a secure amount of funds to start searching for that perfect beginner horse our program needs. Thank you to everyone who was so generous as to donate to our cause. I am proud to say that MEC was able raise over $4,500 in a 1 month period; something that our club has never accomplished before. Stay tuned to hear more about our search for a new horse and eventually show off our future purchase with pride!

Over half way!

December 07, 2016

We are a little over halfway there! Thank you to all of our donors who have so generously contributed to our project. Our club has had their eyes peeled in finding that perfect beginner horse for our program. However, they are all nearly over the amount that we have raised so far. We desperately need to reach our goal of $7500 in order to broaden our searches. Please consider donating if you have not done so, or reach out to others and spread the word!

We appreciate all of your help!

November 27, 2016

We are eternally grateful for the support of our donors. Every dollar is helping us reach our goal and we are so thankful for every contribution! However, we are only a little less than a quarter of the way there. We are so determined to achieving our $7500 goal, but need more help. Please consider donating and spreading the word. With 19 days left, we hope to make our project 100% funded!
