Sarah replied to Special Horses, Inc.'s discussion 'MISSING HORSE - KENTUCKY'
I had a a similar accident with my horse on a trail. He was attacked by a dog, threw his rider and took off... I am lucky to have been able to catch him. I know how scary this can be! You must be worried sick...I hope you find her!

Starting and running a 501(c)3, or how to use up all your free time (5 May 2010)

After owning Troxel helmets for over 10 years, I was dismayed to discover that the Troxel Legacy Gold sizing/styling had changed and it no longer fit. When I called customer service to ask about the issue, they weren't very helpful. But in theprocess, I heard from several people - at local tacks stores, and on different forums - where others had had the same problem. So apparently it wasn'tmy ego making my head circumference mushroom.I ended up by buying a Tipperary, and contacted Troxel one…See More

Starting and running a 501(c)3, or how to use up all your free time (3 May 2010)

Once you submit all your paperwork to the IRS...you wait. And wait. We submitted in late July, and by mid October we received a letter...which said we were assigned to an agent. Our application required more information...which could be resolved by a simple phone call. Or maybe not. While we waited to be contacted further, our groups assured us this was the status quo.We were grateful for the assistance of the legal team working with us through the generous gift of the Ralph and Virginia Mullin…See More

So...what's in a by-law, anyway? Apparently, a LOT of legal jargon! Bluebonnet Humane Equine Society (www.bluebonnetequine.org) sent us their by-laws, and Colleen had been preparing some for what would become Borrowed Freedom Equine Therapies (www.borrowedfreedom.org). Still, I had to download forms (thanks, Google!) as to what needed to be in the by-laws, what constitutes a director, how many you need, how you will… Continue

Gail from True Innocents Equine Rescue (www.tierrescue.org) gave us the heads up about the Ralph and Virginia Mullin Foundation. This is an organization that will assist groups devoted to animal welfare wishing to become 501(c)3.
