About The Grant
BluePearl Cares helps nonprofit partners assist pets in need when – not ‘if’ – the next disaster strikes. Disaster Relief Grants provide financial support to animal welfare organizations whose communities have suffered the impact of natural or other disasters. Grants may also support partnering organizations assisting in rescue, relief, and transport efforts.
Eligible expenses include medical supplies, veterinary care, pet food and pet supplies, temporary shelter and boarding costs for rescued or at-risk pets, other immediate materials to keep pets safe and comfortable, transportation costs to rescue or relocate pets, and other expenses related to providing disaster relief.
Applicants may apply for immediate funding or may request reimbursement for up to three months post-disaster. The maximum grant award is $5,000.
