Ocala, FL (May 15, 2012) – Chester Weber, the nine-time USEF National Four-In-Hand Champion, is pleased to welcome Horseware Ireland, the equestrian market’s leader in horse clothing, to his team of sponsors.

“My team cannot compromise on the care of our horses, so we use Horseware blankets, turnouts, coolers and fly sheets from the Rambo, Rhino and Amigo lines to keep them warm, comfortable and dry,” Weber said. Horseware will also outfit Weber and his managers and grooms with stylish casual jackets, vests and polo shirts for their upcoming competition tour in Europe this summer.

Weber said his human team is happy about being outfitted in Horseware’s casual clothing. “It will really add to our team spirit to have attractive and well-fitted casual wear,” Weber said.

Since its founding in 1985, Horseware has prided itself on outfitting horses and their people with high-quality, thoughtful clothing and accessories for any season, riding discipline or lifestyle. Horseware is headquartered in Ireland, with a U.S. outpost in North Carolina.

June 3, 2011 – Kinston, North Carolina and Wellington, Florida – Leading horse blanket and equestrian clothing manufacturer Horseware Ireland has reaffirmed its commitment to JustWorld International, partnering with the not-for-profit humanitarian organization to build another school at JustWorld’s project site, Stung Mean Chey, in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.

An official JustWorld International sponsor since 2005, Horseware Ireland has committed $25,000 to begin construction on the new school.  Equestrian humanitarian Maria Newman has also donated $10,000 towards the new school’s construction.  In March, Horseware Ireland spearheaded the first annual Strut! Fashion Show held at the FTI Winter Equestrian Festival show grounds in Wellington, FL.  Proceeds from the fashion show bring the total raised to date to $35,000 for construction of the new school, which will be a three-story facility.

JustWorld currently operates two schools in Cambodia, one located in Stung Mean Chey, and the other at the Borey Keila project site, situated in an urban slum of Phnom Penh.  There are currently close to 600 students receiving instruction in English, Khmer, math, and traditional Khmer culture free of charge.  In addition to education, the schools provide clean water and basic nutrition to extremely poor families and children who otherwise have almost no resources.
