Allyson DeCanio, President of The Pegasus Project, expressed excitement about the event, stating, "Wings Over Pegasus is a wonderful opportunity for our team to welcome the residents of East Texas onto our ranch to help spread awareness about at-risk horses in our community." DeCanio emphasized the significance of the event in raising awareness about the vital work undertaken by The Pegasus Project to rescue and care for neglected horses.
Established in 2010, The Pegasus Project has been dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming mistreated horses, donkeys, and mules. The organization aims to combat prevalent issues of horse neglect, abuse, and abandonment in East Texas.
All proceeds from Wings Over Pegasus will directly benefit the horses of The Pegasus Project. The public is encouraged to attend and contribute to this worthy cause, while enjoying a day filled with entertainment and education.
