Lowery Marks 10 Years As Panhandle Equine Rescue President

July 20, 2016

Tuesday, Panhandle Equine Rescue celebrated 10 years under the leadership of Diane Lowery of Cantonment as the group’s president.

The only horse rescue in Escambia County, Panhandle Equine Rescue was founded in 2005 by a small group of concerned citizens with a mission to rescue, rehabilitate and provide adoption services for abused, neglected and abandoned equines. PER is authorized by the court system to investigate equine cruelty in Escambia County.

“I am honored that God has called me to do this. I’m hoping it is a long chapter of my life. And I appreciate everyone who stands behind and supports me. Without all of you this rescue would not have gone this far. Everyone plays a part and brings a certain something to the table and it all comes together to make this work. I am hoping that we can save many more lives in the future,” Lowery said.

    This is a wonderful lady! Congratulations on 10 happy years. If I give up potato chips I’ll have money to buy feed, lol. I’m really searching for things I waste money on.

    Congratulations on the success of a wonderful organization that has made a tremendous difference in the lives of many, many equines and owners in this area. These great people educate as well as rescue. Hat’s off to you!

    Diane is such a caring and committed person. She cares for these neglected horses for many hours each and every week as an unpaid volunteer, and the rescues would not be happening without her personal gifts of both time and money.

    Why not skip a few Starbucks each month and send Panhandle the money. You just might save a starving horse.

    Seeing GREAT PEOPLE LIVES MATTER is so awesome!!! Thank You for being such a wonderful and caring leader in our community. I can see by your comment that you think about everyone involved cause like you said it’s a lot of people that you don’t know about or hear about that make a good thing become GREAT and that speaks a lot about a person. I appreciate y’all for your hard work and dedication.
