Summary of organization's goals, strategies to achieve the goals, accomplishments, and capabilities to meet the goals, including its long-term plans to sustain its programs:
Our goal is to help at-risk horses through rescue, rehabilitation and training. Our accomplishments have ranged from placing over 310 horses with their forever families to founding the Annie Project, which we have grown to include twelve Colorado dude ranches. However, the accomplishments don’t come from the numbers, they come from the stories of happy adopters. Our adopters have said that their adopted horses are “a dream come true,” that adopting from a rescue was, “by far, one of the best, most life changing decisions I have ever made,” and that they are “the lucky family who received a fantastic new friend.” In order to make those success stories happen, we have grown to a team of twenty volunteers supporting the rescue of 446 horses, with 20 regular donors. Our capabilities to achieve our goals continue to grow based on our community support. We partnered with the Right Horse Initiative and received their 2019 Innovation Grant to help us further our Annie Project to include more ranches and more horses. With greater community support, we are able to assist more horses, which is why we are so grateful for this opportunity. We also received grants from the Colorado Unwanted Horse Alliance, EQUUS Foundation, and private donors in 2019. Through this funding, we were able to provide training, veterinary care and quality feed, and improve our facilities to be better equipped to handle incoming horses.
     
     Our long-term plan to sustain our programs stems from the development of younger team members. We have several generations of volunteers that range from middle schoolers to retirees. Additionally, with programs like the Annie Project, we partner with other rescues as well as the ranches themselves to ensure a long-lasting legacy. Our belief is that community building helps all of the players involved, including the horses, the volunteers, the leadership team, the ranches and the other rescues. We appreciate the opportunity to continue our partnership with the EQUUS Foundation.

Horse Rescue, Rehabilitation, Retraining & Re-homing:
Overview of our programs involved with rescue, rehabilitation, retraining, re-homing and/or retirement:
     The Annie Project was created to offer Dude and Guest Ranches a new option for retiring horses. The Annie Project was born in June, 2017, through the relationship between Drifter’s Hearts of Hope, C Lazy U Ranch and The Colorado Dude and Guest Ranch Association.
     
     The Mission of the program is to give dude and guest ranches a new option for retiring their horses...an option that will keep them safe from auction and out of danger of entering the slaughter pipeline.
     
     Our goal is to create a lasting, symbiotic relationship with all members of the CDGRA (and eventually the DRA) and have the opportunity to find these deserving horses loving and forever homes in their retirement/transitional years. In exchange for the horses, DHOH will offer participating ranches a tax-deductible donation receipt per horse as well as social media and website promotion.
     
     In addition to founding the Annie Project, we also take in auction pulls and owner surrenders. All of our horses go through our evaluation or training program and receive quality care to assist them in their rehabilitation process.

Community Outreach and/or Public Education:
Overview of our programs involved with providing community outreach and/or public education programs involving horses:
     We seek to promote horse adoption in our community outreach activities. We have hosted events at the rescue to educate the public about our adoption initiatives and adoptable horses. Additionally, we offer ourselves up as spokespeople to speak on behalf of our rescue horses to local barns and 4H groups. We are always looking for more speaking opportunities and would be happy to assist to further educate the public about why we rescue.
