AHP Newsgroup: Enjoy Horseman’s Card® Benefits and Provide Equine Research Funding
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Lexington, KY (March 25, 2009) – Since its creation in 1991, The Horseman’s Card® has been the VISA® credit card of choice for horse owners and enthusiasts. It 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 to make a purchase.
Officials of the University of Kentucky's Department of Veterinary Science created the Gluck Center in 1987. It is one of only three centers in the world dedicated exclusively to researching the diseases and physiological problems of the horse. Critical research conducted at the Gluck Center is for the benefit of horses of all breeds. Scientific findings from the Gluck Center benefit people as well, including investigations into arthritis, aging and immune response, and bacterial and viral infections. Six of the top ten vaccines sold today are a result of the accomplishments of equine researchers at the Gluck Center.
In addition to raising funds for important equine research, The Horseman’s Card® offers cardholders unbridled savings on a wide selection of merchandise and services chosen especially for the equestrian or equine enthusiast. Cardholders automatically receive substantial savings from dozens of nationally recognized equestrian retailers through the exclusive VIP benefits program.
