How You Can Participate

The RRTP is a charitable organization  under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (see letter from IRS granting tax exempt status here). Donations are tax deductible pursuant to applicable laws. Our mission is to facilitate the placement  of retired Thoroughbred racehorses in second careers by educating the public about the history, distinctive characteristics, versatility of use, and appropriate care and training of the iconic American Thoroughbred.

Funding is needed to maintain and expand our internet services, conduct our Throughbreds For All events, produce educational videos, and finance our presentations at horse expos and other high visibility public events. We do not use donated funds to care for individual horses. That work is done by the farms and organizations that we serve.

We also hope that you will participate in our work by listing your horses in the Bloodline Brag and your business or organization in the Trainer Directory or the Sources For Horses. Please also use our Thoroughbred Classifieds, and most importantly, forward a link to our site through Facebook, Twitter, and every other tool you know how to use!
