Hello <span contenteditable="false" data-custom-variable="{{firstname}}" fr-original-class="fr-deletable styled-tag-chip" fr-original-style="" style="color: rgb(42, 42, 196); overflow-wrap: anywhere; user-select: none; background-color: rgb(248, 248, 255); border: 1px solid rgb(191, 191, 255); border-radius: 4px; margin: 0px; padding: 1px 8px; font-size: 11px; display: inline-block; box-sizing: inherit;">First name, Because of your incredible compassion, a sweet, late-teen Quarter Horse mare is no longer standing in the sweltering dust of a McLean, Texas feedlot. When we asked for your help to get her out of the 100-degree inferno and away from the slaughter pipeline, you answered the call without hesitation. Thanks to you, her nightmare is officially over. Your generosity provided the exact lifeline she needed when she had no one else. Instead of waiting in a barren dirt lot for a truck she would never return from, she is now preparing for the journey to the cool, shaded pastures of Rosslor Rescue here in San Juan Bautista. Because you chose to act, your donation has directly funded:<ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">Her Immediate Bail: Securing her life and officially pulling her from the kill buyer&#39;s list.</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">Her Freedom Ride: Booking her spot on a safe, comfortable transport rig out of the Texas heat and across the country to California.</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">Her Critical Care: Covering the cost of her upcoming intake veterinary exams, vaccines, and the quality hay she needs during her decompression and quarantine.</li></ul>Rescue is never a solitary effort. It takes a village of people willing to look into the dark spaces and offer a hand. You are the reason she will get to take a deep breath, rest her tired legs, and eventually step into a new life as a cherished lesson or trail horse. We will keep you updated the moment her hooves touch down at the sanctuary. Until then, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you for proving to her that she was worth saving.
