BACKGROUND
Background
This $10,000 grant was awarded to Guilford County Animal Services for work with pets and their people. This grant was approved by the Maddie's Fund Board of Directors on January 31, 2024. Guilford County Animal services did not apply for the grant. The award was based on our community outreach programs already in place. The funds will go toward enhancing our current community outreach programs. Our Mobile Pet Assistance Clinic is where we provide pet food for the community and give free one (1) year rabies vaccinations. We provide pet identification tags to reunite lost pets with owners, preventing them from coming into the shelter.
