New Arabian Horse Foundation Formed With New Pledge Options
The Arabian Horse Association (AHA) is pleased to introduce a new Arabian Horse Foundation to meet the growing needs of the Arabian horse community. The foundation will fund previously unsupported areas such as general education, equine research and disaster relief. Donors will have the option to designate their contributions to a particular category.
“This foundation will provide, for the first time, a way for donors to select how they want their gift to be used,” said Larry Kinneer, President of the Foundation. Under the previous structure of the foundation, youth scholarships were the only donor option, and will remain a donation option in the new Arabian Horse Foundation. “Funding our youth remains a priority,” said Kinneer. Board members decided on the new categories partly based on recent events. “The fires in Southern California in 2007 displaced approximately 4,000 horses. And no one can forget the devastation that Hurricane Katrina caused to both humans and horses. Each of these tragic events left horses without homes, food and water, and in need of medical attention. In the future, when such catastrophic events occur, the Arabian community will have a presence in helping through the Arabian Horse Foundation,” said Kinneer.

LOCAL GROUP REVIVES ARABIAN CUTTING CONTESTS
Cutting cows out of a herd is the one performance event where the rider is rarely involved. The cutting horse has to have the agility, athleticism and intelligence to do the work virtually alone.
Cutting horses share a heritage with all that was once part of the American West. They also share the heritage of the Arabian horse. Arabian blood was an essential element in developing the indispensable “cow horse”.
