For over 30 years, The Northwest Horse Source has been a trusted voice for horse lovers, growing from a small regional magazine into a nationwide platform that educates, connects, and supports the equine community. From free event postings and affordable advertising for small businesses to safety tips and a business directory that gives back 15% to equine and veteran nonprofits, we’ve always put the community first. But keeping an independent publication alive is harder than ever, and we need your help. Your donation, whether $25, $100, or more, directly supports free resources, small business visibility, and our ability to give back to charities that matter. Every dollar keeps this legacy alive for the next generation of horse lovers. ❤️ Will you join us in preserving The Horse Source?
