Mission Statement

The Equus Survival Trust is a 501(c)(3) educational non-profit organization dedicated to protecting the genetic diversity of historical equine breeds (horses, ponies and donkeys) threatened with extinction.  The Trust supports these breeds by engaging in collective conservation efforts, educational promotions, and by supporting the network of endangered breed equine associations, and enthusiasts around the globe, with special emphasis on North America and breeds unique to North America.

Vision Statement

The Equus Survival Trust provides grassroots education for endangered breed conservation:

(1) by creating new or compiling existing public resources, and by organizing and/or supporting projects, exhibitions, clinics, lectures and educational competitions or inspections that enhance conservation and preservation  

(2) by focusing on supporting or creating conservation markets that enhance the survival of endangered equines while retaining the historical inner and outer characteristics of these breeds

(3) by maintaining an aggressive presence in the public eye, particularly in publications and on the Internet.
