The Sanctuary's partnership with Peace Corps Fiji is one we truly treasure. Each year, this long-standing collaboration gives us the chance to welcome incoming Peace Corps volunteers and share what we know, including:

Teaching horse and personal safety fundamentals, so volunteers know how to handle horses confidently and safely

Assessing each volunteer's basic ba****ck riding skills one-on-one

Demonstrating traditional Fijian herbal remedies used to treat common horse injuries

Sending volunteers off with our Sanctuary horse care posters to display in their village community halls

Its certainly a mutually beneficial partnership which we cherish - Vinaka!

Happy birthday to our founder, Morika Hunter🎉🐴

Five years ago, Morika's love for horses turned into something bigger than any of us imagined, a home for over 40 rescued horses on the banks of Vakabalea. Every adventure, every programme outreach and every act of care on this sanctuary exists because of her heart, her grit, and her refusal to give up on animals nobody else would.

Today we celebrate the woman who leads this place with so much love, wisdom and strength. Vinaka for everything you do, Morika. Here's to another year of you changing lives, one horse at a time.

From all of us, the horses, and the whole Horse Sanctuary Fiji family, happy birthday! 🎂💛

It's up!!
Our new roadside entrance sign for the Horse Sanctuary arrived today — and it's gorgeous!
We're incredibly grateful to Sheena Hughes-Fiji for her amazing generosity gifting us this beautiful, large sign. Thank you, Sheena!!

Our old sign was just as beautiful, but sadly it faded over the years from the weather. It was gifted to us years ago by our wonderful friends Rourou Fiji , Lorraine Reiher Emily Sharp and Loren Eastgate
We're so, so grateful for this incredible community.
Vinaka Sheena!

This week we have been focusing on physio and gentle exercises for several of our horses who are now strong and cleared to start training.

The black mare is Bella - she has a heart condition that stunted her growth and development, however, over the past 2 years she made big strides forward, has grown and is a strong girl. She will now be available for Sanctuary adventure walks.

The handsome, gentle boy with the white face is Astra. He has inherited a swayed back but has been cleared by vets for a light rider. He is also ready to be led on Sanctuary hikes through the bamboo forest or along the river.

Sanctuary love!
Highlights from the past week.
We are so grateful to everyone who visits the Sanctuary, as well as our regular Sanctuary families who help us care, groom, walk, and exercise our 41 horses.
Vinaka for the love!
