Laminitis claims the lives of thousands of horses and ponies each year and doesn’t discriminate in its choice of victims. It can claim the performance horse as quickly as the backyard pony, and is responsible for the premature loss of such greats as the seemingly invincible Secretariat. Please help us find a cure for this terrible disease. The Animal Health Foundation needs your contribution to continue funding laminitis research. You can make a difference. Give today.
The goal of the Animal Heath Foundation is to find the "Trigger Factor" of Laminitis. A group of horse lovers and owners who wanted to make a difference established the AHF in 1984. We are not-for-profit, have no paid employees and are all volunteers. Donations to the AHF are tax deductible. Contributors can be assured your contribution truly works directly toward the goal. The administrative costs incurred by the AHF are below 4% annually. All administrative costs are paid for by the board of Directors, so 100% of what you donate will go directly to fund laminitis research.
Dr. Chris Pollitt, U. of Queensland, Australia We gladly accept donations to the AHF online or by check.

Triple Crown winner Secretariat, one of the great race horses of all times, was humanely destroyed on October 4, 1989, to release him from suffering of Laminitis. The Animal Health Foundation dedicates its efforts to his memory and to all victims of laminitis. Signed and numbered prints of Secretariat by renowned equine artist Helen Hayes of Lexington, Ky., will be awarded to all donors of $250 or more.
