Animal Welfare Grants Will Help Pets and Wildlife With Urgent and Extraordinary Needs

The Giving Coast

The Community Foundation of Sarasota County recently awarded $191,985 in grant funding to 15 nonprofits that provide care and rehabilitation to wild and domestic animals. Each grant helps an organization either purchase advanced equipment to more effectively treat animals in critical condition or provide animals with emergency treatments that may otherwise be unaffordable. Some grant recipients focus on caring for domestic cats, dogs and birds, while others concentrate their efforts on rehabilitating and releasing wild birds, rabbits, turtles, manatees and more. For more information, visit cfsrasota.org or call 941-955-3000.
