Every horse owner dreads the word “colic." It is, tragically, the number one killer of horses worldwide.

Today is ColoradoGives.org. Please help us find the cause of Equine Colic.

Through the Colorado Equine Colic Fund (a 501(c)(3) organization), you can directly support the vital, life-saving research being conducted by the Colorado State University Galloway Equine Research Fund at Colorado State University Veterinary Hospital in Fort Collins.

Your donation fuels the scientific breakthroughs needed to discover both the cause and prevention of this devastating disease, saving countless horses across the globe.

The foundation is set. Pioneering equine clinicians and researchers, Drs. Yvette Nout-Lomas and Diana Hassel of CSU's Equine Veterinary Hospital, have completed successful pilot work (see details below) and are now ready to launch the definitive study.

We are seeking urgent funding to utilize their groundbreaking live horse model in a larger project.

This expansion is essential to finally elucidate the complex mechanisms and identify the high-risk factors that lead to colic. By supporting this phase, you are helping us transition from foundational research to actionable prevention.

"Displacements and twists of the large colon are the most commonly occurring forms of colic in horses and are sometimes fatal, so prevention of this condition is a primary goal of our research.

We have developed a model to track the exact location of various portions of the equine GI tract so we now have the opportunity to determine factors that increase the risk of colic in horses.

We anticipate expenses of $84,000 to lease and instrument 7 horses and follow them for a period of 6 months to find out answers to questions many veterinarians and horse owners have only been able to guess in the past." states Dr. Diana Hassel, one of the CSU Veterinary researchers for the project."

The Colorado Equine Colic Fund, a 501(c)(3) organization, the fundraising arm of the Colorado State University Galloway Equine Research Fund, a 501(c)(3) donor-supported fund has raised over $18,000 since its inception in 2023.

Your gift directly accelerates research that can save countless equine lives.
