A Life Changed
- Big Girl's Story -
This is ‘Big Girl’, a 7 year old BLM donkey, originally from the Nevada desert. She was abandoned and undernourished when she came under our care. Shortly after her arrival, she gave birth to her foal, now known as ‘Troubador’. They both now have proper nutrition, veterinary care, and all the love they can get. Their permanent home is in the beautiful foothills of Northern California.
Your support helps us to continue to provide:
Free or Discounted Entries to educational programs, clinics, an exhibitions.
Investing In The Next Generation
We believe in fostering the next generation by removing financial barriers for youth to engage with donkeys.
Through fundraising efforts, we ensure that all of our events are either free, or are offered at a substantially reduced fee for anyone under the age of 18.
