Please beware that there are other calendars, none if which contribute towards the horses, so please promote ours! We, SRWHMG are the only one with the huge responsibility to care for these precious families.<\/p>\n<p>On the front of the calendar you can see how close these families are, it features Athena, Venus and Iris, sharing the exact same piece of eelgrass, even while they can eat anywhere in the river. It&#8217;s the wild horse way of sharing meaningful family dinner.<\/p>\n<p>Each month of our Calendar features a new carefully chosen image of Salt River wild horses, paired with a poem that tells their story. Printed on thick high quality, frame-worthy paper, many save and frame the pictures after the year ends. With Christmas fast approaching, calendars can be sent directly to friends and family as meaningful gifts \u2014 and 100% of proceeds go back to protecting the horses!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/saltriverwildhorsemanagementgroup\/posts\/pfbid024N5Wq7MannxfpDDKzRgoywapkhAZa6r9oyiLBwaeAZiBgag2Es1vfZ6shiNATg6sl\">Comment or share this post<\/a>, every share helps more people understand how critical community support is for the Salt River wild horses.
