Foster a Horse
Your symbolic foster is an ideal way to support the horses living wild and free among the Maryland herd on Assateague Island National Seashore. By fostering a horse,  you are directly involved in preserving one of America’s most loved wildlife treasures and their survival in one of our most fragile natural resources.
