MWHR is running a GoFundMe campaign to fund the cost of improving our Batesville barn location. The farm where our horses reside has about 7 acres of pasture and needs re-seeding. By re-seeding our pastures now we can ensure that the horses will have grass to eat through the fall, which will help reduce our operating costs by eliminating the need to feed hay. Our horses enjoy 24/7 turnout at all times.
In addition to re-seeding the pastures, we are planning to install a new gate/entrance off of the main road to enable easier and safer access for a truck and trailer. The current entrance is shared with the homeowner and is very difficult and at times dangerous to navigate due to a blind hill on the busy road.
Re-seeding will require approx. $640 in seed (10 bags of KY Fescue at $64.00 per 50 lb bag)
Gate/Fence project will require approx. $360 in lumber and $200 for rock/gravel.

Welcome to the Mustang and Wild Horse Rescue of Georgia. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to providing a program for wild horses captured by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) wild horse roundups. We are located in Georgia in the Canton area. MWHR is a local organization founded in 2002 by David Hesse. After his first trip to the high desert country in California where he learned how to gentle a wild mustang, Hesse, whose passion is to preserve the Mustang, opened a training center to teach new mustang adopters how to safely gentle their wild horses. A couple of years later, he founded MWHR. It is committed to providing a safe haven for previously owned mustangs and wild horses that are no longer wanted by their adopters or those who have been abandoned, abused or neglected by their owners. The horses had originally been placed for adoption by the BLM Adoption Program. MWHR gentles and rehabilitates the horses they rescue to so they can be successfully re-adopted by new owners. MWHR’s goal is to obtain land in the near future to provide a sanctuary for unadoptable mustangs. It is also devoted to raising public awareness of the plight of wild horses and burros and why saving these Living Legends is critical to our nation. MWHR hopes to inspire others to become involved in their worthy cause. MWHR is run entirely by volunteers; donations and interest are always welcome and greatly appreciated.
