Our Mission of Thanks
Our Mission of Thanks
We owe horses more than we can ever repay.
For centuries, they carried us across continents, plowed our fields, rode us into battle, and stood beside us in work and in play. They were our transportation, our power, and our partners, long before we had engines and machines.
Today, most of us no longer depend on them for survival, but they still give us their trust, their strength, and their partnership. At MareFolk, we believe we owe it to them to give something back.
$1 from every shirt we sell goes directly to equine rescue and related causes.
We send donations quarterly to non-profit organizations doing the hard, unglamorous work of pulling horses from kill pens, providing sanctuary, and supporting those who keep them fed, healthy, and safe.
Organizations We Admire
Some of the rescues we admire most are listed below. Click through to see the difference they make. And, maybe lend them a hand yourself if you can.
Big Hoof Foundation
Big Hoof is dedicated to saving draft horses from slaughter, especially those who have worked hard their entire lives pulling plows and supporting farms. Here, they receive the healthcare, love, and well-earned retirement they deserve. Horses are never adopted out; bonded pairs remain together for life, living out their days with dignity and care in permanent sanctuary.
Skydog Ranch & Sanctuary
Skydog provides permanent sanctuary for wild mustangs and burros, offering each animal the kindness and respect they deserve. Those who want to be left in peace are given space; those open to human contact receive the compassion they may never have known before. Families separated during roundups are reunited here, free to live together for the rest of their lives.
Colorado Horse Rescue
Colorado Horse Rescue believes every horse deserves a future. From those left behind to those simply out of options, each horse is met with compassion, care, and the chance to begin again. Their team focuses on rescue, rehabilitation, and rehoming while also educating the public to prevent neglect before it starts. Every animal who arrives is treated as an individual, not a number — valued, respected, and given a true second chance at life.
Days End Farm Horse Rescue
Days End Farm Horse Rescue has been a lifeline for horses in crisis for decades, providing refuge, recovery, and the patient care that turns survival into healing. Many arrive from cruelty or neglect, but through expert hands and calm hearts, they regain strength and trust. Beyond rescue, DEFHR trains law enforcement and educates communities, ensuring that every saved horse helps shape a kinder future for others still waiting.
Our goal is simple: keep creating designs you love, and use them to give more back in the number of horses helped and the size of the impact we can make. We hope that in time, we can expand the amount we donate and the organizations we support.
We thank you for coming along with us on this journey and for helping to support our mission.
