They say that miracles happen at Christmas and it is with a fluttering heart that I am doing this fundraising campaign to donate to the establishment of the "A Decent Life for No Longer Needed Injured and Retired Sport Horses Foundation", all funds will be spent in an absolutely transparent way on full boarding for the months of January to June for the 8 horses and 1 pony I rescued.

Briefly our story:

My childhood dream and love is horses and so 3yrs ago I started riding .In a short time I got hooked and and decided that I would buy my own horse and to go to the next level to compete in show jumping . I fell in love at first sight with a beautiful 4 yr old mare named Magic and bought her immediately , but she turned out to be a young and rambunctious horse for a rider like me . I sent her to be trained by a professional trainer and I bought Icarus a routinized adult horse Professor. We rented an equestrian facility with a playground and for 2 years we did children's birthday parties with a horse ride and successfully supported ourselves and the horses with this activity, in the meantime rescuing a filly from a gypsy cart, a retired injured racehorse.Going through the sport I got badly injured as well , then Icarus did as it turned out 3 sprains on the same leg, Magic made a super start to his first season but got injured in training and so I gave up professional development in equestrian sport, retired my horses and in the meantime took home 3 more sport horses with careers over. All was well until the end of October the landlord decided we were making too much money from the kids birthday parties to look after that many horses and staff and said , he will be running his riding stables and establishment and in 1 month we have to leave.

Luckily a friend of ours owns the only free base in the region 50km from Burgas in a seaside resort village and we moved the horses there. The good thing is that in summer there are a lot of tourists and we will be able to support ourselves with walks in the arena and in nature, but we urgently need funds to survive until June when the tourist season starts!

I am doing this campaign with the great hope that this will be our Christmas!
