Many institutions are inundated with donations, and are faced with the same 
hard choices of how to get rid of excess horses when the time comes.  At most 
institutions, the dollars and cents approach is the main driving force, and 
for many, slaughter is a common option.  If you "donate" to avoid slaughter, 
then you'd better check what happens when the horse is no longer of use to 
the institution.
