So sorry to announce that SHARE closes its doors as of May 1, 2025.
Our mission was to maintain the integrity, well-being, and health of hooved animals through education first.
SHARE was a nonprofit humane society in the Champaign, IL area with investigators that cover a large portion of Illinois. We provided housing, care, and training for approximately 40 rescue horses at any one time. Other than some "sanctuary horses-horses that are not available for adoption due to physical or health issues," these horses were up for adoption to loving, forever homes. SHARE DID NOT RECEIVE ANY FUNDING FROM FEDERAL, STATE OR LOCAL TAXES - your donations kept SHARE operating!
Our goals were simple - help educate horse owners on proper care and treatment. When necessary we stepped in to rescue neglected and abuse animals. SHARE was no longer able to be rescuing horses, we were a "sanctuary" for 40+ horses that are living out their lives at SHARE. We had adoptable, ride-able horses available and some horses that were available as pasture pet/companions.
All the sanctuary horses have been adopted to loving forever homes.
This was not an easy task and only through the help of volunteers were we able to provide the best care for our rescued horses. Thank you for helping SHARE do its work through the years.
If you suspect abuse or neglect of a horse,
you need to contact the Illinois Department of Agriculture at 217-782-4944 to report this!!
THANK YOU:
SHARE thanks all the volunteers and those who donated either their time or money in making SHARE work smoothly.
