BRILLION, Wis. — There's an event this Saturday that will help to raise funds for horses that help people with mental illness, disabilities and psychological setbacks or for those who just want to be around horses. 10 of the 14 horses are rescues, ranging from a pony surrendered to a high-kill shelter in Texas to a draft horse that was beaten and abused early in life; and they now rescue people in return.

All the money raised will be used to help feed and care for the horses so they can continue their irreplaceable work.

The event takes place from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and will feature lots of prizes and the opportunity to get up close to these beautiful animals!

The organization says they hope to host the walkathon annually, but possibly even twice a year.
