American Humane Offers Grants for Keeping Domestic Violence Victims and Their Pets Together
Deadline: Open
Recognizing both the urgent need to protect domestic violence victims from further abuse and the comfort that pets provide people, especially in times of stress and trauma, American Humane is leading the Pets and Women’s Shelters Program (PAWS), a national program to guide and encourage domestic and family violence emergency housing shelters to let residents bring their pets with them.
Only domestic/family violence and women’s emergency sheltering agencies (private or public) will be considered for the PAWS Fund. Individuals, animal shelters, businesses, and corporations are not eligible.
Nonprofit 501(c)(3) agencies and municipal agencies are eligible to apply.
Further information, including complete grant guidelines and the PAWS Program Startup Guide, are available at the American Humane Web site.
