Project Hope Horse Welfare have over 180 horses in long term care all over Victoria.
Many thanks go out to all our wonderful members that have taken on the role of caring for 1 or more of these beautiful equines who had
fallen on bad times and just needed someone to love them for being them.
We do not sell horses or adopt them out, they remain a Project Hope horse. This is of great benefit to the new owner and the welfare of the horse. For example, should an owner’s circumstances change, and they can no longer care for their Project Hope horse, they can contact us and we will rehome the horse.
We take the utmost care to perfectly match our horses and ponies with their new owner to ensure all are set for a happy, long and bright future together.
