The American Quarter Horse Foundation connects horses and people through charitable giving to support programs that preserve our horseโ€™s legacy and further the well-being of the American Quarter Horse and the Quarter Horse family. Since 1960, more than $13 million has been awarded to various colleges and Universities to further our understanding of equine management and health and improve the overall welfare of our horse. Since its inception in 1976, the Foundation scholarship program has awarded more than $10 million in financial assistance to more than 1,600 young horse enthusiasts and industry members. The American Quarter Horse is renowned for its capacity to offer transformative experiences to those in need, making it a cornerstone of the Equine Assisted Services (EAS) industry. With high performance standards set, the Americaโ€™s Horse Cares grant program is dedicated to enhancing industry horsemanship skills while prioritizing the welfare of our horse. The American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame & Museum, located in Amarillo, Texas, houses the American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame and celebrates and preserves the history of the worldโ€™s most versatile breed.

Last week students from across the Panhandle explored the American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame & Museum, connected with artists Kathryn Kastner and Edgar Sotelo, and gathered inspiration for this year's Youth Art Show.
Young artists ages 11-18, from the Panhandle Region, are invited to create artwork celebrating the American Quarter Horse. Registration is due by October 26 and artwork submitted by November 6.
We can't wait to see the amazing creations this year's artists bring to life.

Like Cesar Pedrero to his son Jorge, heroes can be those who pour into the industry that gave them everything, not just those with the most accomplishments.

This Day of Giving, you can become the hero behind someone else's journey.

Hear from Vickie Mills, who shares the story of the special bond between her husband, Harold โ€œBudโ€ Mills, and AQHA Champion Dollie Pine, a mare he proudly owned. Together, they shared a connection that was just one part of Dollie Pineโ€™s remarkable legacy, one that would influence generations of American Quarter Horses.

Who would spend $2,500 on a crippled horse in 1947? Bud Warren did. And at the time, he admitted, โ€œI was the biggest chump in Oklahoma.โ€

But Leo had the last laugh.

By 1951, Leo was the leading sire of two-year-old Register of Merit qualifiers, three of his offspring held track records, and Bud Warren had become one of the leading breeders of Quarter running horses.

In addition to siring speed, Leo also became known as a sire of top performance horses, and in 1989, he was inducted into the American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame. Learn more about this iconic American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame stallion here ๐Ÿด https://www.aqha.com/-/leo
