Dutchess County is home to over 10,000 horses! Often, Lucky Orphans is inundated with requests for horses that are in need of new homes.
We are seeking someone to manage our Project Relocation Facebook Group page and help horses find new homes. Equine knowledge is required, as well as ability to take standard photographs (head on, left, right) and obtain horse identification information (tattoos, etc.). Primary responsibilities include conducting site visits to photograph the horse needing relocation, tracking/logging horses posted to the page, and following up with owners so that availability is up to date.
Post orientation on site and meetings with LOHR staff, this volunteer opportunity is virtual and requires local visits to horses in need of relocation. Ongoing support consists primarily of in person, electronic and phone communication.

Mission Statement
Lucky Orphans Horse Rescue is dedicated to providing a sanctuary for unwanted, abused, neglected horses and to improve the relationship between horses and people. We are committed to raising funds to support the rescued horses in our care and will pursue the acquisition of grants, gifts, bequests and donations to support the organization. We are a no-kill rescue striving to promote humane treatment. Our goal is to properly unite humans and horses in a safe environment, using approved methods to preserve the best equine care through informative and instructional guidance, education and administration, adhering to the understanding of the need for the preservation of rural equine communities. We are not breed specific and promise each of our horses will never again know the abuse, neglect, abandonment or other injury that brought them to our facilities.
Description
Since Lucky Orphans opened our barn doors in 2008, we have helped many horses, along with some sheep and goats, fi nd a more promising and meaningful future. It is the goal of LOHR to not only save t hese wonderful animals, rehabilitating them and rebuilding their trust in people, but also to use their stories of struggle, overcoming adversity, building trust, leadership, and teamwork to create an understanding and inspiration in children, young adults, and the community. Today, Lucky Orphans Horse Rescue is dedicated to not only providing a forever home for these magnificent creatures, but also to educating the community and focusing on strengthening the relationship between children and animals to build a more compassionate future.
