Welcome to the Colorado Wild Horse Foundation! We are thrilled to have you visit our website for our sanctuary, where the spirit of freedom thrives in every hoofbeat. Here at our rescue, we dedicate our hearts to the protection and care of wild horses and burros, providing a haven for these magnificent creatures to roam free and live their lives in peace. Join us in our mission to preserve the wild equines of our Nation's western landscapes and the majestic beings that call it home. Feel the magic of the wild as you explore our foundation and discover how you can make a difference in the lives of these incredible animals.
We are Colorado Wild Horse Foundation. We are a recognized and registered 501c3 Colorado Nonprofit Organization created strictly for wild horses and burros in the State of Colorado. Although CWHF is a fairly new foundation/sanctuary, the founders have been advocates fighting for and supporting wild horses for many years.
Our mission is to ensure Wild Horses and Burros are able to live a safe protected life whether living free on the range, or in a domestic situation after losing their freedom because of a roundup.
We also help Wild Horses/Burros that have found their way to unsafe or abusive situations, homes where their humans have fallen on hard times and need some help, or horses that have found their way into the horrific fate of an auction or kill pen. We will work for the horses and burros so that they may live their best life possible.
We currently have horses from Sand Wash Basin CO, Devil's Garden CA, Sulphur Springs UT, and assorted HMA's in Nevada, as well as Burros from Black Mountain AZ and Nevada.
Our Wild Horse and Burro sanctuary, Savannah's Hope Sanctuary and Training Center, is located in Calhan, CO.

Savannah's Hope Sanctuary and Training center is a 52+ acre sanctuary and is capable of supporting dozens of wild horses and burros.
There is so much more to come and we are very excited at what the future holds for Colorado Wild Horses and Burros. Please stay close and follow along/participate with us as we work towards a safer place for our wild friends, they need all of our support!
A little more about Savannah's Hope Sanctuary and Training Center: Our facility features an indoor arena, an outdoor arena, 6 stall barn with hay storage and feed room, 6 individual 2-4 acre runs each with shelter, electricity and running water. We have a 3 acre pasture area set aside for the Burros as well with the same ameneties as the 6 large horse runs. There is an additional 20 acres of grazing pasture in the rear of the property that the horses are rotated in on. We are able to help so many more wild horses and burros than are currently here! There is also a community gathering / office building onsite for small events.
We need to get additional fencing purchased and installed, electric fencing needs to be bought and installed, the runs in the barn need gates at the end of each one and we also need some gates for the large runs, these need to be purchased. In addition to the aforementioned we need to get a six foot tall 60 foot diameter round pen for training.
We can do the labor for all these projects, however, volunteers are always welcome to come help!
As always we will have a constant need for hay and grain for feeding, as well as donations for vet services and farrier services.
Any and all donations are not only greatly appreciated but are also tax deductible!

As a passionate supporter of animal welfare, you understand the critical role that organizations like ours play in safeguarding the lives of our beloved equine friends.
The Challenge: Feeding Our Rescued Horses -
At the Colorado Wild Horse Foundation, our mission is clear: to rescue, rehabilitate, and provide a safe haven for wild and abandoned horses and burros. These magnificent creatures have faced unimaginable hardships, from neglect and abuse to harsh unprotected weather conditions to exploitation. Our dedicated team works tirelessly to give them a second chance at life.
However, our resources are stretched thin. The rising costs of hay, grain, and supplements have put immense pressure on our budget. The horses and burros rely on us for sustenance, and we cannot let them down.
Without proper nutrition, their health deteriorates, affecting their overall well-being and happiness.
How Can You Make a Difference?
Your generous donation can make an immediate, lasting impact.
Here’s how:
1. Hay and Feed: Your contribution will directly fund the purchase of high-quality hay and nutritious feed for the equines here. Every dollar counts, and even a small donation can go a long way.
2. Emergency Medical Care: Some of our rescued horses arrive with health issues. Your support ensures that we can provide essential veterinary care, vaccinations, and medications.
3. Warmth and Comfort: Winter is especially challenging. Your donation will help us keep the horses warm with blankets and shelter.
