From all of us at Brooke USA, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making Dorothy Brooke Giving Day such an incredible success.
Together, we raised an inspiring $14,156 in just one day — and thanks to the generosity of Vicky and Eric Busch, the first $10,000 was matched dollar-for-dollar, doubling the impact of your kindness and compassion. That means that we exceeded our goal, ultimately raising $24,156 — Thank you!
This day was about more than dollars raised. It was about carrying forward the legacy of Dorothy Brooke, a woman whose relentless devotion to saving war horses laid the foundation for a global movement in equine welfare. Her belief — that every working equine deserves compassion and care — continues to guide our work every day.
Because of your generosity, we’re able to support programs that provide veterinary care, better working conditions, and essential resources to the people who rely on their animals for survival. There’s still time to make an even greater impact. If you haven’t had the chance yet, you can still donate and help even more working equines and the families who love them: www.BrookeUSA.org/mydonation.
As we head into the holiday weekend, we wish you and your loved ones a joyful and safe Independence Day. Your support reminds us that when compassionate people come together, we can bring freedom, dignity, and comfort to animals in the world's harshest conditions.
With deepest gratitude,
Brooke USA
