California Retirement Management Account
CARMA is a charitable 501(c)(3) dedicated to providing funding for the rehabilitation, retraining and/or retirement of California-raced Thoroughbred horses.
Hoedown For Horses
On July 22, join us for the Country-Western event of the year to support Thoroughbred aftercare. The Hoedown will be in the beautiful Del Mar Thoroughbred Club Paddock. Enjoy live country music, square/line dancing, BBQ dinner, mechanical bull riding and a no-host bar. All proceeds go to towards caring for retired racehorses!
Helping Retired Racehorses
As a service to Thoroughbred owners and trainers who need help retiring a race horse, CARMA’s Placement Program is a safe way to transition the horse into the next phase of its life. Since its introduction, the program has assisted more than 200 horses and connected them to homes as equestrian mounts, therapeutic animals and companions.
Funding Non-Profits
Since 2008, CARMA has granted over $3.5 million to non-profit organizations that retire, retrain and re-home Thoroughbreds that have raced at partnering tracks in California. To date, more than 3,000 horses have been helped through our grant process.
