TCA was formed in 1990 to raise and distribute funds for charities in the Thoroughbred industry, which provide a better life for Thoroughbreds both during and after their racing careers by supporting retirement, rescue, research and by helping the people who work with them. TCA is the charitable arm of the Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association (TOBA). To date, over $16 million has been distributed to 150 equine charities who dedicate themselves to providing a better life for horses and the people who care for them on a daily basis.
