On Saturday, September 26th at 6 PM EST, Equine Advocates will present Willie Nelson with the 2020 Safe Home Equine Protection Award for his work to end the slaughter of America’s horses during a special webcast to appear on Equine Advocates website, Facebook page and YouTube channel.
“Willie Nelson is the 19th recipient of this award since 2002,” said Equine Advocates President, Susan Wagner. “He is so deserving of it for his work to protect horses. We are delighted to be preceding the broadcast of Farm Aid on the same day. The entire day will be focused on Willie Nelson for his humanitarian efforts to help horses and for his decades of work on behalf of America’s family farms. How great is that?”
Nine-time Grammy Award-winning singer/song writer, Sheryl Crow will be making an appearance during the webcast with a special message for her good friend and fellow horse lover, Willie Nelson. They recently recorded the song, “Lonely, Alone” together. The music video for the song includes footage of Nelson with some of his rescued horses.
