DONKEY & EQUINE HAVEN USA

Together, we can change their story

Who we are..

The Association for Donkey and Equine Haven, USA (the “Haven”) is a non-profit 501(c)(3) charitable organization. The Haven was founded in 2009 and is completely volunteer operated. Our Mission is the rescue, rehabilitation, and rehoming of abused,
neglected, and abandoned equine animals. An integral component of our Mission is
providing a space for people of all ages and abilities to experience empathy,
compassion, and loving kindness through personal contact and connections with these
loving and intelligent animals, in hopes they will carry it forward into their daily interactions with others.

The Haven rescues donkeys, mules, and other equines. Our residents come from many
places. We take custody from physically infirm owners, families of decedents, or
financially distressed owners who can no longer care for their animals. We also take
donkeys and equines obtained in law enforcement seizures/surrenders, and rescue
them from the slaughter pipeline. We do so without regard for age, health, or adoptability. We fervently believe that every animal deserves a humane, healthy, and loving existence, and a compassionate end.
*Lack of capacity is the only reason an animal is turned away.
