Dear Valued Members:
As all of you are aware, the entire country is experiencing an economic crunch. Because of this, so is SSHBEA. All equine breeds
are going through these same difficulties. Owners are breeding fewer horses, resulting in fewer registrations.
The SSHBEA Board of Directors has made many financial changes to “cut the fat” from our budget as much as possible. Some of
these changes have not been popular decisions with members or Board Members, but they were vital to our financial survival.
In order to avoid further cuts from our valued programs, we are asking for your help. We have had several fundraising activities,
but we are still in need of funds to restore operating expenses, serve our members and promote our breed.
Your donations may be specified to any program you wish to support or you may make a donation “in memory of” or you may
make a general donation. All amounts will be appreciated. Please mail your donations to P.O. Box 1046, Shelbyville , TN 37162.
In return for your generosity, we would like to reward you by:
1. Adding your name to our “thank you” list on the SSHBEA Website
2. Publishing your name on our “thank you” list in the SSHBEA Newsletter
3. Publishing your name on our “thank you” list in the SSH News
Thank you in advance for your continued support!
