Funding available for Animal Welfare in Arizona

The Animal Welfare Grant Cycle 2024, managed by the Arizona Community Foundation (ACF), funds projects that advance animal welfare in Arizona. This grant seeks applications from organizations focused on reducing animal suffering, increasing adoptions, and improving animal care standards through projects such as rescue operations, medical care, and humane education. The objective is to create lasting improvements in animal welfare, emphasizing projects that tackle root issues and promote public awareness of responsible pet ownership. Funding covers project-specific costs related to animal care, such as veterinary services, shelter maintenance, and educational outreach. Applicants must present a clear budget and demonstrate how funds will directly support animal welfare goals. Arizona-based nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status are eligible, including animal shelters, rescues, and educational groups with a proven track record in animal welfare initiatives. Priority may be given to projects with a sustainable impact plan and additional funding sources. Applications require an organization summary, project details, budget, and supporting documents on demographics and organizational capacity. Proposals are evaluated for impact, feasibility, and alignment with ACF’s animal welfare goals.
