Erin Phillips, TCF Volunteer
WHIMS Database Manager and Volunteer Coordinator
As a life-long lover of God's beautiful creation, Erin Phillips became a wild horse and burro advocate after learning about their plight through The Cloud Foundation and Cloud documentaries. She is 17 and lives on a small farm on 40 acres in rural south-eastern Georgia with her family and horse, Cloud—named after Cloud, Wild Stallion of the Rockies. In 2021 Erin launched her own wild horse rescue and sanctuary — Mustang Mission — and saved her first wild horse, an Onaqui gelding she named Alamo. To learn more and support Erin’s work, visit Mustang Mission’s website here.
