New England Equine Rescue-North Inc

NEER North is dedicated to Rescue, Rehab, and Rehome: We actively rescues horses, ponies, mules and donkeys in need. There are a wide variety of situations including owner surrenders, abuse and neglect where these majestic animals are at risk of diminished health or, worse yet, heading to slaughter. NEER North is a safe haven where these animals are rehabilitated with the intention of adoption into new families.

While continuing our mission to provide these services, we are working towards a new goal of building a covered riding arena, updating our electrical systems and updating our barn facilities. Our main source of income is through donations, fundraising and grants. We are seeking grants to assist us in the expense of installing water hydrants paddocks, purchasing and installing new/additional run-ins and storage building for our tack shop, and constructing additional parking . The run-ins and hydrants will allow us to water shelter additional horses, the parking and tack shop storage will allow us to increase one of our premier sources of income and allow for more visitors to the facility

We have multiple fundraising events throughout the year including an annual auction supported by our Fundraising Team. We have outreach program led by Mary Martin our founder who is increasing support from generous donors. In addition to the barn fundraising events. We have increased participation on our grant team that focuses on identifying and reviewing grants for viability and mission alignment, and writing grants. Our cohesive team is focused raising the funds needed to improve our facility allowing us to rehabilitate and rehome as many horses as possible in a given year. NEER North Inc. depends on local organizations, business sponsorships, donations and fundraising to accomplish their goals of saving these amazing equines.

NEER North has established multiple committees to aid in our fundraising goals.
As noted we have established a grant writing team as well as a fundraising team that in conjunction with our founder, Mary Martin, and the NEER board or directors are establishing a capitol campaign. This campaign establishes the most important areas for improvement in our facility and structures and focuses our fundraising goals around that campaign. In addition the volunteer team speaks on behalf of NEER North and advocates locally for this amazing organization.

In March of 2015 we were able to purchase our property at 52 Ash Street that allows us to scale and meet the needs of our Equine rescues. This could not have been made possible without are incredibly generous donors.
We have established a year round tack store that brings in revenue throughout the year.
Local fundraising events are established year round and are managed by our fundraising teams.
In 2022 we finished construction on our outdoor arena provided an excellent space for working with our equines. We also installed a new well, added additional personnel to our grant team.
