Equine Emergency Disaster Fund

Application Process

The Equine Emergency Disaster Fund was created to assist with covering certain equine expenses directly related to a significant disaster (e.g.: flood, wildfire, pandemic, etc.) or where a local, provincial, or federal governing body may have declared a state of emergency and/or an evacuation. Applications may only be submitted once. As funds are often limited, only one application per premise or home of the equine(s) will be accepted. Approved applicants will be notified via email or phone (where email does not exist). As funds are limited, the AEF and industry partners encourage you to review and apply for any Provincial Government and Federal Government emergency funding support.

Application Requirements

1. A fully completed application; signed, true, accurate, and including receipts.
2. One (1) LETTER OF REQUEST from yourself providing the details of additional expenses you incurred, with the receipts/bills incurred for your equine(s) because of this disaster. In the case of a boarding stable, we require ONE application for ALL equines.
