Summary

The Ray Rowe Trusts for Animals Grant provides funding for programs aimed at the welfare of animals, particularly dogs, and the protection of wildlife habitats, especially for canid species. There are no application deadlines; grants are distributed from early March until the year's funding is exhausted, typically by the end of November. To apply, organizations must hold 501(c)(3) status, while general administrative costs are generally not supported.

Overview

Note: There are no application deadlines; however, the Trusts generally distribute grants throughout the middle 2/3 of the calendar year, from early March until the year's available funding is exhausted -- say, through the end of November. The trusts were founded "...for the care and well-being of animals, particularly of dogs but not necessarily limited thereto." The late Mr. Rowe was a close friend of the Trustee’s family. This close personal relationship, and understanding of Mr. Rowe’s philosophy, yields the following interpretation of his wishes: the Trusts will consider supporting a program that will care for abandoned and abused pets (primarily dogs), or protects the habitat and/or improves the welfare of wildlife (primarily canid species).
