Purr'n Pooch Foundation For Animals Announces Its Grant Awards in Animal Rescue and Rehabilitation

The Purr’n Pooch Foundation for Animals recently awarded over $25,000 among six nonprofit animal rescue and rehabilitation organizations. Since 2010, the Foundation has awarded over $150,000 in financial and in-kind donations of pet supplies and food to non-profit, no-kill animal and marine mammal rescue and welfare organizations.

Recent grantees include All Critters Rescue from Spotswood, NJ, New Life Boxer Rescue from Kenilworth, NJ, American Rescue Dog Corporation from Howell, NJ,

Cat Assistance Network from Allenhurst, NJ, All Fur Love Animal Rescue from Freehold, NJ, and Ayla’s Acres from Saint Augustine, Fl. Donations are used for day-to-day operations, emergency relief, spay/neuter efforts, veterinary care, equipment, construction, vehicle purchases, educational programs and special projects.

“We are truly fortunate and honored to partner with the Purr’n Pooch Foundation for Animals. Most fortunate are the 225 animals that have found their forever homes and the many more animals that will find their forever homes as a result of this grant,” said Steve Charnick, Co-Founder, All Fur Love Rescue. “As an all-volunteer, no-kill organization, our expenses for food, supplies, and veterinary care are tens of thousands of dollars each year. Without the generosity of private donors and grants like this one, we would be unable to continue our lifesaving work.” To help All Fur Love by becoming a volunteer, foster or donor visit www.allfurlove.org.

Events include a canine run/walk, summer party and collection drives. For a list of upcoming events for people and pets, visit www.purrnpoochfoundation.org.
