we are making a small donation (the most we can right now) in memory of Chance the little horse who brought this forum togther like no other horse has.
I remember that day like it was yesterday the day we were all shocked at his story and watched it unfold, the anger, the fear and the strength we showed as we pulled togther to help this horse- it is something that both haunts me and yet in a ironic way gives me faith in the good of people..
So in memory of Chance we made our donation!

I wasn't around when CMHR was started. Could you tell us how it evolved and a little bit about Chance's story? Oh, I talked to my mini's and they all said they could donate $3. Big horse Joe said not to forget him. Dang goats said they want in too! Plus my $3, let's see.......that makes $48 heading your way.....oops, dogs said they'd kick in to make an even $50. Coming by snail mail. Haven't done my Christmas shopping yet either and I usually buy something from Ozark's........so I'll just make sure it's done by Thanksgiving!
For those that were not here when Chance’s Mini Horse Rescue was conceived.
CMHR was started by a group of American Miniature horse lovers, who
were concerned over a message that appeared on an internet bulletin board.
The message described a paralyzed Miniature horse colt in need of a “homeâ€.
The Miniature horse community from across the country rallied in response.
In less that three days the colt, renamed “Second Chance†by his new caretaker Denise Clark, had been removed from his former home and was receiving much needed veterinarian treatment.
Unfortunately “Chance’s†injuries were severe, and no hope of recovery was given.
Chance was humanely put down. As the discussion of his plight continued, concern remained not only for “Chance,†but for all other Minis in need of a second chance at a loving home.
In a few short weeks, the American Miniature horse community had literally
“come to the rescue†and through the determined efforts of its founding members,
Chance’s Mini Horse Rescue was born.
CMHR is now a 501 c3 non profit organization that is totally supported by the
generous donations of the Miniature horse community thru out the world.
To Mary Lou and Mona for your support of this endeavor thru the
Web Site and Lil Beginnings. To Carolyn who each year runs the "Mission of Thanks" drive.
[SIZE=14pt]THANK YOU!!!!!![/SIZE]
To each and all who help with fostering, transporting and donations for the auction a
very big thank you. We could not keep CMHR going without all of your help and your support.
[SIZE=14pt]THANK YOU!!!![/SIZE]

Lisa, thank you so much for your donation and for remembering Chance. Gini,,,,thanks for supplying us with the whole story. I know it is does help many to understand the true meaning behind CMHR.
There are so many, many people behind the rescue,,,,some who do so much out of love for this wonderful breed and many who do it silently and without thank yous. To all of those who have ever contributed in any way shape or form,,,,,,,financially, fostering, book work, web site updates, transport, and anything else I may be missing. I can not thank you enough. The mini world is a much better place with all your love and giving. You guys are all the best and I am so proud to be a part of this wonderful group.
This Mission of Thanks was started as,,,and is, a very simple idea. Our first year we had a modest goal and we were told it just can't work. Well, it did and has continued to work for many years. Why,,,,the small amount we ask for can be met by most. Over the years I have received many, many emails from people who felt the dollar amount we asked for, they could do,,,,,,,,so many times large donations are asked for and even those who really want to help can not come up with a large amount. Our $3 allows most to help and mini owners themselves have expressed to me how good they feel to offer a donation, even if just the $3. It is their donation, and yours and mine all totaled, that makes the difference. We ALL make a difference.
Last year I received a email from a young women who wanted to let me know she only had $1.68 in her checking account left for the month,,,,,,,,,,she sent that $1.68 to CMHR. Of all the donations we have received,,,large and small, hers touched me the most. It was so much to her, the last dollar she had,,,,,to me it was priceless.
We are not asking for your last dollar,,,,,,,just $3,,,,,,,,,,,,and if all you can do is $3, know it is great,,,,,when combined with all others.
THANKS SO VERY VERY MUCH!!!!!!
