The Horse and Pony Protection Association of Newfoundland and Labrador is the only organization in Eastern Canada that provides care for equines in need.

Our organization is a registered charitable organization which operates the Hopeall sanctuary from donations.  Our budget is lean and all funds raised go directly to providing care for our horses and ponies.

The Hopeall Sanctuary provides much needed care for horses and ponies that have become either unwanted, neglected, abused or harmed.

The equine sanctuary is at the southern end of the community of Hopeall, Trinity Bay, Newfoundland.  It is about a one hour drive from St. John’s and can be easily found on Highway 80 (the scenic Baccalieu Trail).  The quiet pasture and surroundings lie near the beautiful community of Hopeall, Newfoundland.  Our sanctuary covers about 25 acres with two barns /stables and other smaller structures.

A volunteer board of directors provide guidance and volunteer extensively with a group of other volunteers to operate both the association and our sanctuary.  A comment often made which quickly resolves any issue is quite simply summed up with “What about the Horses and Ponies… What’s best for them?”  Doing what is right and never turning an equine in need away are two fundamentals that guide our board and our volunteers.

The sanctuary was established in 1986 by Dr Andrew Ferguson Fraser for the care of unwanted and sick ponies and horses. It has transformed from AFFET to NL Pony Care to HAPPA-NL.

HELP HAPPA-NL HELP PONIES LIKE HOLLY

A beautiful 9 year old Welsh Pony mare named Holly was a recent resident at our HAPPA-NL Hopeall Sanctuary.  She arrived on June 26th, 2009 and had a number of health conditions making her quite uncomfortable.  She suffered for some time with health problems and we worked hard to rehabilitate her.  We did everything we could to help her and bring her back to good health.  She received vet care, medication, expert farrier care and daily care from our sanctuary care team . 

Holly has since been adopted by a horse health care professional in Massachusetts.

We need your help and donations to provide care for more ponies like Holly.  Providing expert care costs money and we survive only on donations.  Please give generously to HAPPA-NL so that we can continue to rescue and provide care for horses and ponies.

Please take a moment to look at the Help Holly page for more information about Holly.
Text Box: UPDATE HAPPA-NL has linked to CanadaHelps to provide secure online donation capability. Donating is safe, secure, fast and easy. Make one time or automatic monthly donations. Donation receipts are emailed immediately or mailed at your request.
