About The Grant

Second ChanceĀ® Grants for Shelters and Rescue Groups


Local shelters and rescue groups are often saddled with the steep expenses of saving, sheltering and caring for animals in desperate need. Our Second Chance Grant offers financial assistance to help offset the critical costs of rescued animals who are victims of human cruelty or neglect. These grants advance and facilitate the lifesaving efforts that give animals a second chance at life when they have nowhere else to turn.

Requirements

  • Only animal sheltering agencies (public or private) and rescue groups are considered for the Second Chance Fund. 


  • Only non-profit companies exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and (ii) local municipal agencies are eligible to apply.


  • Funding may be used only to cover medical procedures for animals that have been victims of abuse or neglect and require medical treatment before being placed for adoption. Routine medical procedures -- such as vaccinations, heartworm testing, behavior modification, and/or training are outside the scope of this fund. Spay/neuter surgery costs, if listed in the itemized costs of care for a cruelty/neglect case, even if not medically necessary for treatment, are eligible. 


  • Medical procedures covered under the fund will allow animals to medically recover and live a relatively pain-free life. 


  • Animals involved can be successfully placed in new homes. 


  • Funding to any one agency is limited to $2,000 per fiscal year. 


  • Applications must be received no later than 6 months following the date of intake of the animal(s). 


  • Only applications received through the appropriate online submission process will be eligible.
