Clarification !!!! What is the difference between the non profit Double Rainbow farm and Mlwstables. Mlwstables is the (creator ) of Double Rainbow Farm . MLW Stables is the one (supporting )Double rainbow farm.
Double Rainbow farm was Originally created to provide children and adults a place to come , expand your mental ,physical,cognitive skills thru the animals here at the facility .
Double Rainbow farm is the place that horses ,Cows ,Ducks,chickens,cats, dogs, goats,sheep, pigs,geese and even Fish Were brought here because there was no other place for them to go.
MLW is the host sight and the financial supporter for Double Rainbow Farm. When the nonprofit does not have funds to support these animals Mlw Stables does , In tune of over( 5,000 a month ).
In turn The animals (horses) are trained rehabilitated to be part of the pony camps, pony Rides, petting zoo, daily interactive support animals for all that come to the facility. Programs For instance,(Firefly program YMCA, Kidsfit YMCA, birthday parties, riding instruction classes,pony camps, visitors from local community homes and their staff)
Double Rainbow Farm supports these animals here by paying a fee per stall occupied (board). This includes farrier fees and minor Veterinarian care (by an agreement with the stables) and at a fraction of the usual boarded horse cost.
Double Rainbow farm has never been able to support all these animals brought here so ( Milton and George) financially assisted in there care farrier, Dentist, grain, hay,
As the years went by we received more horses that NO LONGER FIT THE BILL OF THERE OWNERS OR FACILITIES OR FAMILIES DUE TO FINANCIAL /OR PERSONAL REASONS , they could no longer care for them. Euthanasia is NOT AN OPTION for owners nor for us!!(only for the welfare of the animals if they are suffering).
George and I do not like the statistics (average) of a horse having at least five to seven owners in its lifetime. This is the reason not many horses/animals left here.
Now as we continue to seek funding ,we still do not have funding to keep as many !!!
However, we were fortunate to find homes for some of the horses here, (some ,Personal ) and Facility horse.
In the end if we don’t receive funding thru grants / donation ,Double Rainbow Bow farm Sanctuary, and all the programs that are generated by all these animals will no longer exist!!!!
We do have several Donations given on a month basis for our support a horse program and we are blessed.
We pray as George and I ( do to health reasons) look for someone to continue this farm / the work , the responsibility is overwhelming for one person.
Now its in Gods hands with hope , prayers to find the right person/ people/ family , that can see the potential, and a reason to buy our facility and have the non profit thrive and grow.
God Bless and please share if you made it to the end of my morning novel. Love Milton & George
