The Mustang Heritage Foundation is an IRS 501 (c)(3) public, charitable, nonprofit organization whose contributions are tax deductible as allowed by law. Founded in 2001, its mission is to help promote the Bureau of Land Management's National Wild Horse and Burro Program and increase the number of successful adoptions of America's excess Mustangs and burros.

Through programs like the Extreme Mustang Makeover, Mustang Challenges, the Trainer Incentive Program and television programming, the awareness and value of the Mustang has increased dramatically. It is through these programs that The Mustang Heritage Foundation has been responsible for nearly 1,000 Mustang adoptions from September 2007 to September 2008.

Please help the Foundation continue on the path to increasing the awareness that Mustangs make great riding partners. Increasing adoptions will decrease the number of Mustangs held in long term holding and ultimately protect mustangs and their habitat in the wild.

The Mustang Heritage Foundation is committed to:

• Supporting and advancing the repositioning of wild horses (hereafter referred to as Mustangs) as a positive horse owning experience in conjunction with the BLM
• Assisting in creating a more marketable product through improving selection and expanded and enhanced training programs for critical Mustang age groups
• Attracting potential adopters and assisting the BLM in turning prospects into adopters
• Providing information and education about mustangs and burros, their care, nurturing and use as athletes and companion animals
• Identifying and providing opportunities to become involved in the mustang and burro experience through adoption, volunteering, sponsorship and philanthropy
