How
Does ASAP Survive?
|
 |
People like
you, people who believe in our cause, extend a helping
hand. Thank you for your support--past, present and
future! As a grassroots animal welfare NPO (non-profit
organization), ASAP is able to survive only because of
the generosity of Standardbred and other horse lovers.
(The Wellman family, for example, covers additional expenses
amounting to over $7000 and donates a farm, trailers,
an off-site office, their time and much more.) These
are tough times for charities, but together we can make
it possible for many horses (over 512 to date!) to have
a lifetime of care!

| Income
from adoption fees and donations did not match expenses
for 2001. |
|
|
POINT OF COMPARISON:
According to Guidestar financial disclosures, the Standardbred
Retirement Foundation had $415,475 in revenue for 2000
but only $331,415 expenditures.
