R.A.C.E. Fund

Founded in 2004, R.A.C.E. Fund is a charity based in Harrisburg, United States working on animal welfare.

R.A.C.E. Fund is a non-profit organisation founded in 2004 that helps retired and rescued thoroughbred racehorses and racetrack pony horses. It provides care during their transition to retirement, sanctuary care and adoption, and has pioneered a racehorse retirement programme funded by the racing industry in Pennsylvania. The organisation also campaigns to end horse slaughter in the United States and encourages the racing industry to fund retirement, rescue and rehabilitation. Its sanctuary horses are cared for at participating facilities, including Breezy Hill Stables in Thurmont, Maryland, which provides quarantine, rehabilitation, retraining and sanctuary care. Support is mainly through the Equi Sanctuary Partner Program, where donors sponsor individual horses through monthly contributions.
