Help Fund Equine Research While Shopping with Horseman’s Card^®

Lexington, Ky. (Sep. 25, 2009) – Since its creation in 1992, The Horseman’s Card® has been the VISA® card of choice for horse owners and enthusiasts. The Horseman’s Card was created to help support the world-renowned Maxwell H. Gluck Equine Research Center in Lexington, Ky. At no additional cost to the cardholder, a contribution is made to the Gluck Center each time The Horseman’s Card® is used.

After the major accomplishment of the determination of the primary DNA base sequence of the horse genome in 2008, the Gluck Center continues major research with the development of a computer-based analytical method to study gene expression. This new process enables an assessment of all genes concurrently, rather than just individual genes or small groups of genes.

Your use of The Horseman’s Card® provides even more valuable funding for further research. In addition to this philanthropy, you can enjoy valuable seasonal shopping with the following Gifts, Art and Collectibles benefit partners:
