Mission and programs · 2023

Primary exempt purpose

Futures For Standardbreds accepts donated Standardbreds that are no longer racing for a variety of reasons, and also rescues them from situations that will lead to inhumane treatment. The horses must be sound and retrainable for pleasure disciplines, and placement in a responsible home.

  • To get to retiring Standardbred horses before their future is uncertain. Cyclone Pass is a 14 year old whose owner died in the spring. The owner made arrangements for the horse to go to a trainer he knew would take good care of him (and the trainer did), but he wasn't racing well and the trainer didn't have the time to work with him so he called us. In many cases, these horses end up in substandard places or kill pens. Those benefitted: The trainer who no longer has to fed or house the horse.

    Expenses $5,000 · Grants $5,000

  • To re-train these horses so that they can be used as pleasure horses as this makes them much easier to find homes for. Daniel retired from the track at age 14and, like most Standardbreds, had never been ridden. Our trainer worked with him and took him through a standard process. He is now comfortable and calm under saddle and will be up for adoption soon. Those benefitted: The original owner who could no longer afford. To take care of the horse.

    Expenses $5,000 · Grants $5,000

  • To re-home these retrained Standardbreds with an adopter who is a good match in terms of ability, appropriateness of their property of boarding facility, and intended use of the horse. Bad Moonshine also came to us as a track retiree. He took to riding easily, loved people, seemed generally calm, reliable and eager to please. He was adopted by a family that teaches riding lessons. He is now being ridden by much younger riders than most retired racehorses. They are crazy about him and really trust him with younger riders. Those benefitted: The original owner who could no longer afford to take care to the horse, the adopter who got a great horse that will suit their needs for years to come.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

As filed, from the IRS e-Postcard file of 2 November 2026. The IRS publishes only each organization's most recent postcard, so earlier years are not shown. A 990-N carries no financial detail. The postcard also gives the principal officer's address, which is not shown here.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
