Grants for animal foundations are commonly provided to aid organizations that help animals such as stray cats and dogs.
Grants for animal foundations are usually provided by private organizations. The vast majority of private grants for animal foundations are given solely to nonprofit organizations. Animal welfare organizations seeking grant funding generally have to provide a detailed outline of funding requirements and objectives in order to receive grant funding.
Animal Assistance Foundation
The Animal Assistance Foundation (AAF) offers a grant to animal foundations in Colorado to any projects that promote animal welfare. While the budget model is not fixed, the program is limited to nonprofit organizations in Colorado or which directly impact animals in Colorado. The goal of the AAF grant is to promote Colorado's status as a state concerned with animal welfare. Before applying for the AAF grant, organizations must send a letter of inquiry to the AAF. See the link in Resources.
