Your Donation Makes a Difference

The Illinois Horse Rescue of Will County was founded in 2011, to provide shelter and care for mistreated or abandoned horses and other animals. We provide shelter, food, and veterinary services for these animals until a suitable home can be found. As secondary services, we provide free educational and therapeutic programs to local schools and charities with and about these animals.

RESCUE REPORT!

🎉 First up—Happy 14th Anniversary to Illinois Horse Rescue of Will County! That’s 14 years of rescuing animals and helping people. In that time, we’ve found forever homes for 891 animals and reached over 30,000 people through our FREE Outreach Programs. That's not just impressive—it's hoof-stomping amazing!

These years have been full of blood, sweat, laughter, tears, heartbreak, and healing. But through it all, IHRWC keeps showing up for animals like me. And we couldn’t do any of it without YOU, our supporters and donors.

Hi! I’m Corona, a 20-year-old Paint gelding. I came to IHRWC in December 2020, because my previous owners were moving out of the country. I am a big boy! I stand around 16 HH. I would love an confident intermediate rider. I'm am navicular but can handle light work. I'm good for the vet and farrier. I'm ready to jump in your trailer to go home with you today!
