Become a godfather or godmother of one of our horses

Our Marais refuge houses an average of 130 horses, sometimes more. Most of them are over 25 years old and have varying degrees of disability, which is sometimes the reason why they are abandoned. A fracture, a sickness, and very often this means they can no longer work and are no longer useful. Some of them have come a long way, from seizures, or have been rescued from their misery after years of mistreatment.

We take in and care for these injured horses, which have become disabled, neglected or retired after a life in riding schools or farms where their services were used.

They require special care, specialist feed and more extensive veterinary monitoring. That’s why we’re looking for sponsors for them. You can come to the refuge du Marais, by appointment, to choose your godchild.

To become the godfather or godmother of one of our horses, we ask for a sum starting from 300 euros per year or 25 euros per month to be paid into account BE48 1911 2251 7127 with the following message: “MARAIS – parrainage cheval + votre nom”.

To meet your godchild on the spot, you can contact Laura Noël at our Marais refuge by telephone on 0474/68.50.16 or by e-mail at  refugedumarais@veeweyde.be.
