Saving One Horse At A Time
Rescue ~ Rehabilitate ~ Rehome
Our Mission
Starfish Equine Rescue is a Cape May County New Jersey 501 (c)(3) Non Profit Charity for Horses. Just like The Starfish Poem, our goal is to make a difference one horse at a time. We wish we could save the world but why get discouraged and quit knowing this is not a possible task. Instead, save the ones you can and make an impact on their lives forever. We rescue horses at risk to the slaughter industry as well as unwanted, neglected and abused horses. All cases are different but all entail rehabilitation, farrier, dentist and veterinarian care. Once the horses are healthy we strive to place horses into the best adoptive homes. Every horse deserves their own special person to love and spoil them. We hope you can help us keep our mission going by becoming a supporter of Starfish Equine Rescue today!
