We’re shining a spotlight on the difference we help make in the world.
Equine Welfare Data Collective
We are proud to be ongoing participants in the The Equine Welfare Data Collective (EWDC). EQDC is a group of agencies collecting national data on equine welfare from transition centers, adoption centers, rescues, sanctuaries, shelters, and other organizations involved in equine welfare.
Albert Schweitzer Animal Welfare Fund
We are proud recipients of an Albert Schweitzer Animal Welfare Grant awarded in 2017 that allowed us to retrofit our Isolation Barn for miniature horses. The Albert Schweitzer Animal Welfare Fund was founded by two lifelong humanitarians, Dr. Marjorie Anchel and Dr. Herbert Rackow, to help finance animal protection projects undertaken by non-profit, tax-exempt humane organizations based in the United States.
One Horse At A Time, Inc.
We are proud recipients of a One Horse at a Time, Inc's Emergency Medical and Gelding grants. One Horse at a Time, Inc. or “OHAAT” differs from traditional rescues in that they offer financial support for emergency hay, feed and vet care, not just to 501(c)3 rescues but also to private owners in need. They also provide assistance through their gelding grant program. They believe that one of the leading problems facing the equine population is overbreeding. Unlike most gelding programs available, OHAAT provides funds upfront to help pay for gelding.
C&S Wholesale Grocers
We are proud recipients of a C&S Wholesale Grocers mini grant that helps GER promote community service opportunities. This year's grant is in support of our Free Gelding Clinic that is 100% volunteer led and run (over 5,000 volunteer hours)! If you are interested in participating in or volunteering for our Free Gelding Clinic please send up and e-mail.

AmazonSmile is a website operated by Amazon with the same products, prices, and shopping features as Amazon.com. The difference is that when you shop on AmazonSmile, the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5% of the purchase price of eligible products to the charitable organization of your choice.

ASPCA - American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
GER is proud to have been approved as a Response Partner for the ASPCA!
The FIR (Field Investigations & Response) Response Partner Program allows the ASPCA to join forces with local and national shelters, rescue groups, disaster response teams and animal control agencies to help animals in dire situations. Partners also provide rescued animals a chance for a new life by accepting them into their adoption programs. FIR's response partners have placed thousands of animals from disaster and cruelty cases into loving homes and that number continues to grow.

The Blanket Bank Returns for Winter 2022/2023!
GER has extra blankets for local horse owners that need help providing blankets for winter - no questions asked!
We know there are differing opinions about blanketing, but we are very aware of what it means to have older or compromised horses in VT. We want to help!
Anyone that needs assistance should email gerdasequinerescue@gmail.com with size & blanket weight. Owners must be able to pick up at the rescue; instructions will be sent once we confirm we have what you need.
If you want to donate a CLEAN, UNRIPPED blanket, please also email and we'll send instructions for drop-off.
