Short Summary

Hi, my name is Vlad and I started this fundraiser for my niece Lana Mesetovic, with the goal of securing funds to save her horse companion, Heraldik. 

Lana is an avid animal lover and a champion horseback rider. Over the past nine years, she has grown from being a kid who liked taking care of animals at the public stables in Zagreb, Croatia, to a young woman deeply devoted to her two horse companions - LeeLoo and Heraldik. During this time, and after months spent grooming and taking care of them, Lana gradually started riding LeeLoo, and then Heraldik. As her riding skills developed, so did the bonds of trust and love between them. 

Eventually, they started competing in local, regional and European horseback riding championships. Over the past several years, the trio won a number of trophies. Their companionship withstood many challenges. While performing an obstacle jump at a regional competition in June of 2013, LeeLoo stumbled and fell, hurtling Lana onto the ground. LeeLoo sustained ankle and chest injuries, and Lana suffered a broken collar bone with multiple contusions. As they recovered and regained confidence, Heraldik provided an emotional anchor to both.  

Unfortunately, this idyllic relationship was interrupted several weeks ago when Heraldik's owner decided to sell him. To honor the relationship between Lana and Heraldik, the owner has given Lana's family first bidding rights on the horse. However, they do not have the financial means to buy Heraldik and save him from an uncertain faith. So, I most sincerely ask for your donations that would allow Lana to provide Heraldik with a safe and loving future! 

What We Need & What You Get

  • To help save Heraldik, and keep him in Lana's loving care, we aim to raise $US 2,500. 
  • All raised funds (if the goal is reached or not) will be paid to Heraldik's current owner as soon as this campaign closes.  
  • All contributors will receive weekly updates on the campaign progress and the amount of money raised
  • After the campaign, all contributors will receive bi-weekly news bulletins about Heraldik's and Lana's adventures. 
  • Any amount you could contribute would be most appreciated. 

The Impact

It is my firm belief that instilling compassion and empathy for all living beings, into young people of today and leaders of tomorrow, is a fundamental ingredient for making our world a better place. Therefore, I am immensely proud of my niece Lana, who, at an early age of 15, continues to demonstrate the emotional integrity, rigorous discipline, and a deep compassion for the horses in her care. Throughout the past 9 years, she has grown to love, care and protect LeeLoo and Heraldik, and they reciprocated in kind. The bonds they created transcend species, and are rooted in the commonality of our existence - emotion. 

Thus, saving Heraldik from being sold to an unknown buyer, is not only a matter of saving him from an uncertain faith, but a matter of us demonstrating to a young person, the power of convictions and integrity in defending the highest ideal of compassion. Please help us support Lana's fight to save Heraldik!
