Equine Flu Recovery Fund for the people affected by the warwick lockdown QLD Morgan Park
http://www.horsesandpeople.com.au/morganpark_raffle.html
Buy Tickets in the MONSTER RAFFLE which will raise funds for horse riders, owners and grooms locked down at Morgan Park.
The Morgan Park Quarantine Recovery Fund has been organizing a MONSTER RAFFLE to help raise as much money as possible to help those affected by the Equine Flu Quarantine at Morgan Park in Warwick in any way that is needed to deal with the after affects of this devastating problem.
Morgan Park was hosting the “Equestrian Triequathon” FEI Eventing World Cup Qualifier when EI struck and stranded over 250 horses, competitors and grooms.
The committee of the hastily convened Morgan Park Quarantine Recovery Fund appreciate that there has been a lot of outside help from many different organisations and companies but also realize that there will never be enough funds when it comes to all the issues and areas to be considered.
The committee understand that there are other areas and people affected in the same way, but there is only so much their committee can do as funds do not stretch far when it comes to such a wide spread crisis.
The Warwick Horse Trials Committee will be responsible for setting up the account and funds distribution, making sure funds will be overseen and distributed in the right manner and into the hands that really need it. Many riders that have their own businesses or have lost jobs or revenue have or may have to borrow or take out loans and now find themselves un-employed and in debt.
A lot of people and businesses have donated to the Raflle in the last couple of weeks, which was instigated by equine artist Sage Carlson.
There have been donations of saddlery and equipment from businesses like Shire Saddlery, Flying Changes Saddlery and Bucas Rugs; Feed companies such as Coprice; artwork from various equine artists, and stallion services.
Tickets for the Raffle can be purchased from the Horses & People website and donations also made via the same website. Tickets are only $5 each and you can also purchase books of tickets to sell to friends and club members. Currently the value of the raffle stands at over $15,000, so the winner and placegetters will do well!
Please remember that for the people in lockdown at Morgan Park the problems won’t be over as soon as the lockdown is lifted - they will be financially affected for many months to come. While the government is helping there is no possibility that those most affected will be able to recoup quickly.
Imagine yourselves in the same predicament and put aside a few dollars to buy a ticket or donate something which you no longer need which can be added to the raffle or given to someone to use.
