The ResQ Fund - Spay/Neuter & Vaccines Assistance

The ResQ Fund provides financial assistance for veterinary care for community-owned and rescue pets, with primary emphasis on spaying/neutering, vaccinations, and aiding strays through Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) programs.

Geographic Scope: Currently only available to pet owners living in the eight counties that make up the Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia: Berkeley, Jefferson, Grant, Hardy, Morgan, Hampshire, Mineral, or Pendleton County.

Focus Areas:

Eligibility:

• Pet owners living in the Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia (8-county region)

Cost Structure: Once an application is reviewed, the ResQ Fund program manager will determine the amount of the grant for the applicant. For spay and neuter, the applicant may be asked to contribute a portion of the cost or apply for coupons that may be available to them.
