Description of Services/Statement
of Purpose and Goals: Founded in 1986 by Grace Belcuore, CERF has been giving ex-racehorses a happy home for over 19 years. CERF is well known throughout the Thoroughbred Industry for its uncompromised commitment to our equine friends. When their racing days are over, CERF gives these horses a home where they can retire in comfort or, if appropriate, be rehabilitated and moved on to their next career. CERF houses 75 plus residents daily, many of whom will be living out their final days at the CERF Ranch in Winchester, California. CERF's original mission was expanded in 1997 to include assistance to performance horses and an educational program for potential industry employees. It was joined in this latter goal by the State of California, many leaders in the racing industry and several institutions of higher education. The ranch is open 7 days a week from 7:00 am to 4:00 pm and the office hours are from 8:00 am to 3:00 pm Monday through Friday. Visits to the ranch are welcome, but must be made by appointment. Our answering machine and FAX machine are on seven days a week and twenty four hours a day.
