Eye of the Storm

Located in Stow, Massachusetts, Eye of the Storm is an equine rescue center dedicated to saving the lives of horses who have been abused, neglected or abandoned. Horses that are brought to the farm remain there for life, or may be placed in approved foster homes once they are completely rehabilitated. Eye of the Storm always retains custody of its horses, even when they are placed in foster homes. Their philosophy is that since people have used horses for centuries, for work, war, sport and companionship that people owe horses a fair and responsible partnership of good care and understanding, because their lives have essentially been given to us. Through communication and understanding Eye of the Storm hopes to improve the lives of many old, neglected or unwanted horses.

Interns will be taking care of the horses through physical chores such as grooming and feeding and keeping their stalls clean. An intern may also have an opportunity to learn each horse's daily dietary needs and may take part in the rescue of a horse outside of the farm.
