Saving one pony at a time

  • Lots of time we get asked what we spend the money on? (Besides rescuing new horses 😂) We believe in being totally transparent so here is our following monthly costs broken down: Rent 7,300,00 IDR - this is 3 pieces of property: the original 9 are with the main barn & stables, the neighboring 9 are which is the exercise/training paddock, & the 2 are which is a small paddock Water 1,500,000 IDR - fresh drinking water for our 22 rescues & for any locals who need it for their horses Feed 8,000,000 IDR this is for rice bran, corn, wheat bran Grass 5,000,000 - fresh cut grass from Lombok Vitamins/supplements 2,000,000 IDR - this includes calcium & minerals Salaries 7,000,000 IDR - this is for 5 local staff Medications 2,000,000 IDR - honestly this is probably higher Hoof care 2,000,000 IDR - this includes trimming, corrective shoes, other needed supplies Feed subsidy 6,000,000 IDR - money donated towards the Gili Trawangan feed subsidy program Approx 40 million Indonesian Rupiah Approx 2,700 usd 14.431 IDR - 1 USD This does not include cost for phone, internet, feed for Gili Air & Meno, nor any feed donations given directly to those in need. Nor does it include building repairs, buckets, tack & equipment, or other ancillary costs. We get about $1500 usd in donations from sponsorships, Patreon, & other set donations. The rest we must fundraise each month. This means each month if we don’t need any special medications, tack, equipment, supplies, or rescue any new horses we still need to raise at least $1200 usd more. If you are one of our routine donors we thank you from the bottom of our hearts and please know that we cannot do this without you! If not please consider a small monthly commitment of $5? This is the price of a coffee at Starbucks surely everyone can spare this? It’s extremely easy to join our Patreon and do an automatic monthly donation of a little (or a lot 🙏🏻). And of course there are many other ways to help! You can donate via PayPal, buy a t shirt in our online shop, shop for the ponies on Amazon, or donate directly to our IDR or USD account 🙏🏻 http://www.horsesofgili.com/wordpress/support/
  • Merpati’s daily treatments continue. He is doing very well! Yesterday he was gelded so he can calm down and quite digging holes in his stall floor! I have found out a bit more history on him and located FOUR different previous owners! He has been bounced around a lot first because he was “naughty” (stallion! If only they had gelded him) and then due to his illness! If only there were equine vets in Lombok! Poor guy 🥺 I feel bad for him and hope this is his last home ❤️ #horsesofgili #lombokhorse #horsesofasia #rescuehorse #rescuepony #ilovehorses #makeadifference #donatenow #horsesofinstagram #rescuehorse #rescuepony #horserescue #ponyrescue #horsecharity #indonesia #giliislands #giliTrawangan #oneponyatatime
  • The “team”! From left to right: Tori Taylor, @x.wei.qin riding Cinta, @dori_debreceni riding Xena, @igor.sky riding Gingin, @ckilburn11 riding Seven, and @emma_crueltyfree_life riding Jara Cinta, Xena, and Gingin are all former cart ponies; Seven was purchased from a stable who couldn’t care for so many horses due to Covid; Jara was our first rescue and was using as a race horse and then a cart pony. *please note we recommend helmets and proper footwear, and all riders fall under the 20% weight rule* ❤️ 🐴 🐎 🏝 #horsesofgili #lombokhorse #horsesofasia #rescuehorse #rescuepony #ilovehorses #makeadifference #donatenow #horsesofinstagram #rescuehorse #rescuepony #horserescue #ponyrescue #horsecharity #indonesia #giliislands #giliTrawangan #oneponyatatime

  • Meet Merpati! Now he has a name ❤️ Merpati means pigeon in Bahasa Indonesian and since he has pigeon fever this is his new name 🤩 He’s a nice boy and has already begun antibiotic, NSAIDs, and therapy for his legs and multiple wounds. His care will not be cheap, we have had to order many extra supplies for him. This includes medications, bandages, and soon gelding. Merpati is looking for a monthly sponsor…could that be you? Information is below and there is a link in our bio (Instagram) on how to donate. Thank you in advance for helping us to care for this boy and make his life better! #horsesofgili #lombokhorse #horsesofasia #rescuehorse #rescuepony #ilovehorses #makeadifference #donatenow #horsesofinstagram #rescuehorse #rescuepony #horserescue #ponyrescue #horsecharity #indonesia #giliislands #giliTrawangan #oneponyatatime Links to donate: https://www.paypal.me/horsesofgili https://gofund.me/dabd8b90 https://www.patreon.com/horses_of_gili https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3MM3SV2FRR32U?ref_=wl_share https://teespring.com/stores/horses-of-gili

  • This evening we are featuring some of the working horses from the harbor area on Gili Trawangan. Please keep in mind that these owners and horses are some of the very few on the island that still have jobs. The majority that pull tourist carts are not working much at all 🥺 While we understand that many do not support working horses; they are a necessary part of life here and throughout much of Asia and Africa. Our goal is to try to keep these guys as healthy as possible and educate their owners to continue to improve their welfare and husbandry. We also of course provide medical care, equipment, and other forms of support while working alongside other organizations such as the @giliecotrust. And, yes some need to be rescues/rehabilitated…but keep in mind animals need the same in western countries too even though there they are a luxury and aren’t needed to work. Here our economy literally is run by horse power. This was the second session of deworming and vitamin injections and we are hoping to be able to collaborates down offer a small horse clinic in the near future. We are going all we can as Covid continues to keep our borders shut and our supporters for normal clinics cannot enter the country.

  • Another horse in need! I have been working behind the scenes trying to help this guy for a week now. His owner has agreed to sell him to us for the price of slaughter which is $500 usd. He has pigeon fever…this is treatable so he has a good chance. He deserves this second chance at life please help us give it to him 💔 everyone deserves love, kindness, and a name. Let’s give this guy all of that and more! #horsesofgili #lombokhorse #horsesofasia #rescuehorse #rescuepony #ilovehorses #makeadifference #donatenow #horsesofinstagram #rescuehorse #rescuepony #horserescue #ponyrescue #horsecharity #indonesia #giliislands #giliTrawangan #oneponyatatime Links to donate: https://www.paypal.me/horsesofgili https://gofund.me/dabd8b90 https://www.patreon.com/horses_of_gili
