Are you ready to elevate your shelter to the next level of lifesaving, but you are not exactly sure where to start and you don’t have the funds to cover a shelter assessment in your budget? We’ll meet you halfway: You bring the desire, we’ll bring the team of experts. Thanks to a grant from Maddie’s Fund, we’re giving three shelters a full onsite assessment ($30,000 value) led by Million Cat Challenge experts completely FREE OF CHARGE between April and June 2021. What about our dogs?Our team uses a holistic approach when reviewing sheltering systems, which means canine recommendations are included in all of our assessments. We’ll review your community and public policy, as well as your shelter and field operations. Newly added content will include operating safely in the COVID world. How to applyVisit the Million Cat Challenge website for details and a link to the application. The application period is open until March 31, 2021. Recipients will be announced by April 8, 2021. Along the way, we are happy to answer any questions about the process and/or introduce you to shelter leaders who already had an assessment. You can also hear more about their assessment experience and successes by visiting the MCC podcast, Bright Spots. No challenge is too big when we work together. We look forward to hearing from you!
