$1000 donations will be directed to a horse
that has no one interested in helping them yet. This is one of the
MOST
important donations to us! We LOVE these horses and it is hard to see the
horses looking for a person who will care and be "their own" person. Thank
you for considering the unwanted horses! These are often the nicest, most
experienced horses who are now dealing with age related issues. Again, thank
you!
Horse
Angel Program:
Maybe you don't have
the money to rescue a horse. Maybe you don't have
the room or you can't make the commitment for a horse right now, but
you want to help. Maybe you tune into your favorite horse online and
would love to make a difference.
Why not become a Horse Angel? Choose a horse to
"watch over." Make a commitment to help this horse until he/she finds
a forever home. It doesn't matter how much you spend... it can be a
little or a lot. Horses can't count.
Each month you send either a cash donation or choose a special gift.
Your gift
will arrive and be used for your horse.
Each month
you will receive updates on the progress of your horse.
Current pictures will either be on the website or sent to you
directly.
You will be advised of the horse's story. We do not always know the
background of the rescued horse, but with evaluations and constant
care, many times the history unfolds as far as neglect and/or abuse.
All of us strive to find the perfect home for these beautiful and
gentle creatures. With your help, the quality of their care improves.
Maybe your gift might even be reusable. Everything and everyone
counts.
It is the blessings of the kind hearted individuals who give back
meaning to the lives of so many horses.

LEAVE A LEGACY !
A gift to Amaryllis Farm Equine
Rescue (AFER) from your estate can insure the long-term success of our
efforts while providing to you and your heirs substantial benefits!
Help the horses in many different ways:
Matching Gifts:
Many companies have matching gift programs
that can double or triple your contribution. Ask your employer if they will
match your individual gift to
AFER.
Honorary or Memorial Gifts:
Honor someone special to you with a memorial
gift to AFER. An animal or person for any occasion. Perhaps a
memorial donation in honor of a loved one who crossed the rainbow bridge.
Helping a horse in need is a great way to allow the memory of your loved one
live on.
We accept donations of cars, horse
trailers, farm equipment, office equipment that can be used or sold by AFER to
benefit the horses. Please see our
wishlist
for items we need!
Life Insurance:
Naming AFER as the beneficiary of an old life insurance policy that is no longer
needed to protect your family is a simple way of making a large gift. You will
benefit from a potential income tax deduction (check with your tax attorney).
Gift of Stock:
Stocks and other gifts of investment assets such
as mutual funds provide an opportunity for a tax savings while supporting AFER.
Charitable Lead Trust - This
trust makes payments, either a fixed amount (annunity trust) or a percentage of
trust principal (unitrust), to charity during it's term. At the end of the trust
term, the principal can either go back to you (a grantor lead trust) or to heirs
named by you (a non-grantor lead trust). You may claim a charitable income tax
deduction for funding a grantor lead trust or a charitable gift tax deduction
for funding a non-grantor lead trust. Since lead trusts are typically used to
pass assets to heirs, non-grantor lead trusts are far more common than grantor
lead trusts.
Bequest - When you decide to leave
assets to charity in your will, you are making a bequest. Your estate will
receive a charitable estate tax deduction at your death, when the gift is made
to AFER.
Retained Life Estate- You may make a
gift of your personal residence or FARM, to charity and retain the right to live
there for the remainder of your life. You receive an immediate income tax
deduction for the gift. At your death, the charity can use or sell the property.
~Thank you for helping us continue to
help the horses! Please speak with a financial advisor for many more options.
Thank you for remembering the horses !
