Brooke USA’s sister charity, Brooke, has been named the official charity of WEG, and is the world’s largest international working equine welfare charity. Brooke is dedicated to improving the lives of horses, donkeys, mules, and the people who depend on those animals in the developing world. Brooke has an 84-year history of providing practical, sustainable, and culturally relevant equine welfare programs that even the poorest owners can embrace.
The FEI World Equestrian Games™, which take place every four years, will be hosted at the Tryon International Equestrian Center in Tryon, North Carolina, from September 11 – 23, 2018. To commemorate this iconic event and the important service provided by working equines around the world, the Brooke Breezeway will feature “Brooke Bricks” which the public can personalize to support Brooke’s equine welfare programs.
Proceeds from the sale of Brooke Bricks will directly benefit many of the 380,000 horses, donkeys, and mules who work in India’s brick kilns – a particularly harsh environment for equines and their owners. Extreme temperatures, lack of shade, difficult terrain and overloading can cause suffering for horses, donkeys and mules. Disease and injuries are common. Brooke works in 3,245 brick kiln sites offering emergency veterinary treatment and vaccinations for animals, as well as training for their owners and service providers on topics such as injury and disease prevention.
Brooke Bricks, which are manufactured humanely in the United States (no animals are involved) are the perfect opportunity to leave a legacy at the site of the FEI World Equestrian Games™ Tryon, 2018, and to benefit these working equines in India’s brick kilns. Bricks can be ordered in memory or in honor of a beloved person, pet, favorite horse, company, to commemorate a special event such as a birthday or anniversary, or to give a company name and logo a permanent presence on this walkway.
