Yesterday was a day we’ll never forget. 💔🐴🔥
05.29.2025
While transporting our beloved mini horse, Hope, to the Ventura County Family Justice’s Camp Hope fundraiser — where we were being honored — our ROH transport van unexpectedly caught fire on the road.
Thanks to the quick response and kindness of the Ventura County Fire Department, Ventura County Sheriff, and several motorcyclists and motorists who stopped to help, the fire was put out and Hope was safely cared for with water and comfort until backup transportation arrived. We are incredibly grateful to everyone who stepped in to help. 💛
Despite the scare, both Hope and our team are safe, and we made it to the event to complete our mission — a powerful reminder of resilience, compassion, and why we do what we do.
Unfortunately, the van is a total loss, and we are now urgently searching for a replacement vehicle so we can continue bringing comfort and connection to our community through our minis. We have a temporary solution in place, but we’ll need support in finding a new long-term transport option.
Thank you for believing in our mission. If you’d like to help or have leads on a vehicle, please reach out. We’ll share more updates and photos soon.
With gratitude,
The ROH Team
