Grand Valley Horse Rescue, located in Western Colorado, launched on Halloween 2020, by a group of 8 children, ages 6 to 11, with parental support. 

Our Mission

• To rescue horses and train them into youth performance horses. 

• To provide affordable access to horses for the children of the community. 

• To construct an equine cross-country course so that individuals in Western Colorado and Eastern Utah can pursue their Olympic dreams.

Our Goals

• To teach teamwork compassion, acceptance, and perseverance in a loving and supportive environment.

• To train the youth volunteers how to share information, teach and coach one another in a loving accepting manner.

• To educate the youth volunteers in proper parliamentary procedures, business management and fundraising.

In GVHR’s first year, they rescued three horses, accepted two surrendered horses, and adopted out two horses.
