Open your heart. Change a life.
Not every horse arrives at Hawkez Haven ready for their forever home. Some need time. Some need healing. Some simply need a safe paddock, kind hands, and a chance to remember that people can be good.
Our Foster Program allows members of the community to become part of a horse's journey without the lifelong commitment of ownership.
By opening your home to a Hawkez Haven horse, you become part of their story — and their second chance.
Types of foster opportunities
Emergency Foster
For horses requiring immediate placement due to welfare concerns or urgent circumstances.
Rehabilitation Foster
For horses needing time to recover physically and emotionally before finding their forever homes.
Retirement & Companion Foster
Provide a peaceful and loving environment for our older horses who deserve comfort and companionship.

"Every horse deserves the opportunity to heal.
Every horse deserves a chance.
And sometimes, all it takes is one person willing to say:
'You can stay with me until you're ready.'"
