I am a grant writer, and just came across a funding opportunity that some of you ferret moms with your 501c3's might be able to use. Unfortunately, the foundation only funds San Diego region. Their guidelines state: Animals - The Foundation supports the "No Kill" philosophy of animals. We have an interest in supporting programs that provide animals with a second chance. Funding provided in this area must be directly related to the care of the animal(s). For example, funding may absorb the cost(s) of veterinary expenses, food, shelter or any other direct cost associated with the rescue of the animal(s). The Foundation does not provide funding for salaries or wages. While the Foundation has a strong interest in protecting the lives of dogs and cats our funding is not limited to these animals. This is their contact information: Toby Wells Foundation P.O. Box 519 Poway, CA 92074-0519 Telephone: (858) 391-2973 Contact: Adrienne Wells Castaneda, Secy. Fax: (858) 391-2979 Feel free to email if you need any other information from their database listing. Hope somebody can make use of this! Jaya [Posted in FML 6341]
