Grants for the Homeless

There are organizations that will provide funds to nonprofit agencies and groups who support homeless animals, their adoptions and welfare.

  1. Mini Grants

    • There are also things called mini grants that can be applied for. These types of grants will provide a lesser amount of funds to the agency or organization.

    Finding Grants

    • Good ways to locate grants for homeless animals include searching Fundnet services and asking others in the industry, as well as looking in publications regarding animal welfare and reviewing publications for local grants that could apply to the cause.

    Application

    • In order to gain a grant, one must apply for it. The best way to do this is to follow the instructions of the agency providing the grant. Contacting the founder of the grant to get additional information about what he is looking for is also a good idea.

    Proposal

    • As part of your application, you may have to write a proposal. A proposal is a document that outlines what is expected to be gained by your organization with the grant money, who will accomplish it, and in what amount of time it will be accomplished.

    Deadlines

    • Most grants will have a deadline for application.
