We were very disappointed to learn that horse.com/Country Supply has discontinued its CARE program. For years, when shoppers entered an organization's "Care Code" at checkout, a percentage of the purchase total was donated to that organization. That will no longer be the case. We're disappointed in this change since TREES' supporters actually built quite a little cooperative donation base while shopping through the horse.com site. A further disappointment was the decision to not distribute what credits organizations had built up in their accounts at the time the program ended. Bottom line, folks, is that if you were shopping at horse.com more to generate donations than because it was your first choice in horsey retail, you no longer need to factor that into your shopping decisions.
HOWEVER! We're still members of the iGive mall, and with holiday shopping moving into full swing, that is another way you can support Equine Elders without spending any extra money yourself. Visit the TREES page at iGive to sign up.
"Searching or Shopping means a donation. It's just that free and easy. A penny or more per search, a $5 bonus for your first purchase and up to 26% of your purchases at over 730 stores like Amazon, eBay, Travelocity, Home Depot, Staples, and many, many more. Plus you SAVE money with exclusive coupons/free shipping deals."
Hundreds of well-known stores offering everything from pet supplies to inkjets to chocolate. happy shopping! Many offer specials, sales, coupons and other extras, just like your brick'n'mortar mall, but without the crowds.
The more you buy, the bigger your donation to TREES!
Now don't you wish you'd started here instead of in a mile long line at 5AM?
