About
Pets Foundation is a UK-based animal welfare charity dedicated to creating a better world for pets and the people who love them. Since 2006, the foundation has supported over 1,000 rescue and rehoming charities across the UK through their grant programmes, awarding £24.6 million in grants, £13.3 million through community partnerships, and £2.26 million through fundraising campaigns. The foundation focuses on three key grant areas: supporting rescue centres, pets assisting people programmes, and preventing pet relinquishment. They work alongside like-minded partners to build and support long-term happy and healthy relationships between pets and people.
Funding Opportunities
Preventing Pet Relinquishment Grant
The Pets Foundation provides funding to projects which aim to keep pets with their owners and out of rescue. This includes projects providing emergency pet fostering for people facing crisis, subsidised veterinary care, neutering schemes, and pet food banks. The Foundation is looking for transformational projects which aim to support the welfare needs of pets in local communities. All proposals must be well-researched and include relevant evidence, including budgetary information and impact data. The program offers one-off grants or up to three years of funding, with a maximum of £80,000 per year. The amount awarded is subject to the size of the organisation. This is a rolling programme, with decisions being made multiple times throughout the year.
Rescue Centre Grants
The Pets Foundation provides funding to organisations whose main activity is the rescue and rehoming of UK pets. This rolling grant programme supports animal rescue centres with grants ranging from £250 upwards, with the largest rescue grant awarded last year being £180,000 for a kennel build. The programme funds a variety of needs including veterinary bills, boarding fees, trap and neuter schemes, food, animal care equipment, vehicles, building work, and utility bills. Decisions are made throughout the year on a rolling basis. Organizations must wait 12 months since their last funding from the Pets Foundation before applying again.
