Our History

Our History

Faith N Friends is a non-profit, 501(c)3 horse rescue and sanctuary in Corryton, TN, officially founded in 2016. Faith, the founder, has been rescuing horses and other animals for far longer than that, solely self-funded. She is the mother of two, Primary Family Practitioner, vet technician, avid rider, advocate for any type of animal, and most of all, horse lover. Over the years she has worked tirelessly to help sick, injured, and abused animals and horses.  However, the need for horse rescue and sanctuary has grown. Every horse sale she attended was filled with  with unwanted, sick, and injured horses.

Determined to make a difference, Faith founded Faith N Friends to address the problem on a larger scale and to raise community awareness. 

Although we cannot save them all, the horses we choose to rescue are evaluated from the start for potential health, ride-ability, and behavior. The goal of Faith N Friends is to rehabilitate, love, and train those who are lucky enough to get a second chance. Every horse Faith N Friends rescues has a story and we portray their stories to the best of our ability. Unfortunately, due to the extreme abuse and neglect some of the horses endure, a few are unable to be adopted and if we have space, they find a loving forever home with Faith N Friends as Sanctuary Ambassadors. 

You can help Faith N Friends by volunteering, sponsoring, donating, or adopting our horses.  Check out our Adoption page to find horses ready to be placed in their forever and loving homes.

Please feel free to look around our site and don’t hesitate to call or contact us. Donations and sponsorships for Faith N Friends horses are also very appreciated and they are crucial if we are to rescue more horses.

One hundred percent of all donations, contributions, and sponsorships go back into rescuing and rehabilitating unwanted, sick, injured, or abused horses. Faith N Friends is also a volunteer-based organization and we are grateful for your help.
