The Pennsylvania National Horse Show Foundation recently announced the recipients of 2012 grant program.
Eighteen community organizations were awarded $15,000 in grants from the proceeds of the 2011 horse show. Locally, the Appalachian Horse Help and Rescue, 1201 Yerger Road, Linden, received a $500 grant for three new windows in the holding stalls.
According to AHHR volunteer Cynde Eister, the grant will go a long way in helping the organization help horses in need.
