Let’s grow our spay/neuter capacity together, California!
We’re doubling down on our commitment to help you provide the care and services that strengthen the bonds and remove the barriers between pets in your community and the people who care for them with Sniptember, a 30-day spay/neuter grant blitz to continue the effort to build back our surgery capacity and relieve the bottlenecks that are keeping animals in our shelters for too long.
Municipal animal shelters, private animal shelters with municipal contracts, and private shelters are eligible to respond to this RFP, even if they already received a California for All Animals grant this year. We know you have work to do so we’ve kept the application process simple: Submit your one-page proposal, budget, and estimated impact statement.
Veterinary clinics and spay/neuter organizations without a brick and mortar intake facility are encouraged to partner with animal shelters on proposals. The shelter would act as the recipient of the funding and then contract with the spay/neuter organization for services. If you need help partnering with a shelter(s) in your region, reach out to us at grants@californiaforallanimals.com and we’ll connect you.
The funding priority for this grant cycle is to increase capacity for spay/neuter services for animal shelters, which is defined as spay/neuter of animals in the shelter, referred by field services and those at risk of ending up in the shelter, for example pet owners experiencing homelessness, pet owners residing in zip codes of high intake, and priority community animals. Operational costs associated with increasing capacity should be included in the proposal.
RFPs will be accepted from September 15 – October 15, 2022. Applicants will be notified via email by November 15, 2022. For more information visit California for All Animals.
