Churchill Downs | Horsephotos

Dr. Pug and Susie Hart have pledged to match all donations up to $1,000 to the Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance Dec. 19 as part of the TAA's month-long Holiday Giving Campaign.

“We want to double donations today as a way of paying it forward to the horses who enrich our lives and to whom we owe our livelihood,” said Susie Hart. “We want to continue in our efforts to promote aftercare and pay homage to all 81 accredited groups who play such a big role. As the umbrella and oversight organization of aftercare, we hope you consider making the TAA your charitable choice this year.”

After serving five consecutive years, Hart is required to rotate off the TAA Board of Directors in 2023.

“Dr. Pug and Susie have been great advocates for the Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance and Susie will be sorely missed on our Board of Directors,” said TAA Funding & Events Manager, Emily Dresen. “People like Dr. Pug and Susie are what make our industry great, and to have them as supporters and mentors is a great asset to the TAA. Please join our friends in supporting the TAA Holiday Giving campaign today.”

TAA's Holiday Giving Campaign commenced Nov. 29 and is scheduled to conclude New Year's Eve. Those wishing to support the TAA, its 81 accredited organizations, and thousands of retired Thoroughbreds can donate through the TAA's website or text DONATE to 56651. During the Holiday Giving Campaign, TAA is also offering donors the benefit of sending digital holiday cards to colleagues, friends, and loved ones.
