Facility Maintenance

Help with daily tasks of cleaning stalls, water buckets, raking, cleaning feed bins, feeding, grooming, gardening, laundry, cleaning tack, organizing, painting and more. We also look for help with larger items from setting up panels to fixing shed runs. 

Events

Assist with planning, promoting, and executing MHR events. Help with event setup and takedown, fundraising, and securing sponsorships. Create marketing materials and distribute flyers and promotional materials to raise awareness. Provide information about available rescues to event attendees.

Media/Marketing

Document horse progress, events, and rescue headshots. Assist with creating photos and videos for grants and other projects. Create content for social media, design flyers and brochures, write blog posts, and work on strategies to increase awareness and support for the rescue.

Fundraising

Additional funding is always needed to care for our rescues. Volunteers can help our Fundraising Committee, or work solo, to raise dollars that is put toward vet bills and top notch care.

Office

Support the smooth operation of MHR with tasks like data entry, paperwork, and organization. Assist with mailings and posting rescues on sites like DreamHorse.

Specialty

MHR is always looking for expertise from specialty areas such as attorneys, carpentry, engineers, electricians, graphic designers, event planning, data management, marketing, etc. Let us know if you can help!

NOTE: All volunteers must attend our horse 101 training course, and be involved with one or more activities before caring for the rescue horses. We understand the desire to work directly with the horses, however our rescues often are in the process of rehabilitation and learning how to trust. Working with this type of horse takes time and experience. MHR will teach dedicated volunteers how to work with rescues as long as it is a safe and positive environment for everyone.
