Partners in
​Animal Welfare ​

Partners in Animal Welfare (PAW) is dedicated to advancing animal welfare by providing financial support to animal welfare organizations and creating and operating programming in areas of identified need.

PAW's work includes:   
Emergency Medical Grants
​Through our work with local shelters, we identified a critical need for emergency grants to cover extraordinary medical expenses of rescue animals so they may become adoptable. At this time, grants are only available to pre-approved organizations. 
Organization Grants
Local animal welfare organizations do lifesaving work often with limited staff and financial resources. PAW provides grants to a select few rescues, shelters and sanctuaries. PAW is not soliciting new applicants at this time. Click Here for a list of our current grantees.
Pets and People Together
​Studies show that pets of victims of domestic violence and human trafficking are also in danger in these situations. Victims will often stay in abusive situations to keep their pets safe. There is a critical need for safe housing for pets while victims transition as well as a need for more transitional and permanent housing that allow pets. PAW assists by funding the temporary boarding or sheltering of pets of victims and working with communities to increase housing options available to people and their pets.
