On January 25, 2012 The State Corporation Commission of the Commonwealth of Virginia approved incorporation papers for "The Virginia Equine Welfare Society" (VEWS ) and authorized them to do business in the State of Virginia. This Society was organized exclusively for charitable and educational purposes, more specifically to rescue abused, neglected and abandoned horses.
Kathy and I are excited to be among the founders of this dedicated group of equine lovers and professionals and we look forward to getting our first rescue(s). Our leased barn is open, staffed with volunteers and ready for business. Over this weekend it was stocked with grain, tack, accessories and 100 bales of donated hay. Watch our blog for upcoming news about our progress. The new website is under construction and should be ready soon. Lots of fun new things will be happening quickly from this point on.

Happy New Year
Kathy and I hope all of you had a Happy Holiday season and wish you a Happy New Year!! We have been investigating other Horse Rescue Organizations nearby but have not been satisfied in what we found so we and some others (actually 10 others) from our old rescue decided to form a new group. Incorporation papers will be filed this month and we will be able to start operation. We have already secured a rehab and training barn and are currently signing up volunteers. We will post more details very shortly after the papers have been sucessfully completed.
