Panhandle Equine Rescue Receives Grant

November 14, 2015

Panhandle Equine Rescue in Cantonment has received a $4,200 grant to use towards a barn for additional hay storage.

The building was delivered a few weeks ago, and Thursday it was loaded with hay to provide for the rescue’s horses through the winter.

The grant was awarded by 400 Paws, a group with a mission to raise funds for qualified non-profit animal organizations; to educate the community regarding animal welfare; and to emphasize the need for financial assistance within local animal shelters and rescue groups.

The only horse rescue in Escambia County, Panhandle Equine Rescue was founded by a small group of concerned citizens with a mission to rescue, rehabilitate and provide adoption services for abused, neglected and abandoned equines.
