The Kentucky Horse Council’s (KHC) U.S. Disaster Relief Fund, which provides a central coordination point for Kentucky’s efforts to support horses affected by natural disasters, was chosen as the recipient of Horse Radio Network’s (HRN) "Horse World Gives Back" program.

Horse World Gives Back is a nationwide charitable initiative aimed at uniting the horse community in a fundraising drive to benefit horses and horse owners affected by the recent flooding and tornadoes across the United States.

Horse Radio Network hosted a three-hour live broadcast on June 6, called the Horse World Gives Back Radiothon, followed by a Horse World Gives Back Retail Day on June 7. Participating retailers gave back 5% of the day’s sales to KHC’s U.S. Disaster Relief Fund and the American Red Cross.

Through the radiothon and retail day, KHC raised money to supplement its U.S. Disaster Relief Fund, which provides feed and temporary housing for horses across the country displaced by weather and other natural disasters
