I have been involved with this wonderful non profit since high school. The work that these volunteers do to ensure the well being of these horses and animals is extraordinary. I would encourage anyone who is interested to volunteer their time or donate if possible.

My wife and I had the opportunity to volunteer at this absolutely amazing no kill rescue. Many hearts and energies make this shelter a perfect place to volunteer and to see how happy and healthy these creatures can be through their ENTIRE natural life cycle. Thank you so much for the time and dedication invested.

Thank you so much for the great experience! My daughter and I can't wait to become volunteers. We had so much fun getting to clean up the minis. Thank you for the opportunity
From F.R.I.E.N.D.S. Horse Rescue and Sanctuary a.k.a.FLORIDA RESEARCH INSTITUTE for EQUINE NURTURING DEVELOPMENT & SAFETY
F.R.I.E.N.D.S. Horse Rescue & Sanctuary is a nonprofit 501(C)3 organization that was established in 1987 to rescue & offer sanctuary to all horses that we accept. We are Broward County Florida's oldest and largest rescue and only sanctuary. We are the only organization in the State of Florida that will accept every horse testing positive for EIA on the Coggins Test. By accepting these Unwanted Horses, we save them from abuse, neglect, abandonment & slaughter. F.R.I.E.N.D.S. does not buy, sell, trade or give away horses. Instead, we offer them a lifetime of sanctuary so they will never need help again. Our priority is to prevent the needless destruction of horses. We also offer the community various hands-on, interactive, learning programs.
