Fire Fund Surpasses $710,000.
“The money is all gone. It’s been distributed between grooms, trainers and owners,” O’Donnell said with the exception of the funds that will be collected next year from the stallion auction that raised approximately $75,000 on live foals".
It is so amazing how the horse community comes together, along with the “outside” community. It said in the article that a daycare had done some bake sales etc, and decided that this is where they wanted their money to go. How adorable and sweet is that, from the little guys?!
Having grown up in the Standardbred community, I am sure all of the grooms, trainers and owners are more then overwhelmed with all of the help that poured in, and will be thankful from the very bottom of their hearts.
