Our fosters are the key to the entire program! Without their big hearts and generous spirit, we would not be able to rescue the animals we do. They must fill out the application (same as adoption application) and be approved. They are responsible for the entire upkeep including feed and medical care of the equine until it is adopted. For more detailed information on fostering, please review the “Foster Home Checklist” and “Foster Contract” under forms on our website.
Yes! Since APFP is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization, expenses incurred on behalf of your horses may be tax deductible. This includes hay, grain, fly spray, halters, leads, shavings, etc. You cannot deduct additions to your property such as stalls, fences, barns, etc.—even if they are used for fostering horses since these are permanent additions to your property. Although every individual/situation is different and we cannot give tax advice we suggest saving your receipts and keeping a list of expenses for your accountant for when it’s tax time.
