Golden Retriever Rescue Fund (General Rescue Fund)
Who can apply: Applicants must submit a completed GRF application form. Rescue groups are expected to participate in the GRCA CARE Committee's annual survey and provide the survey or authorize GRF to obtain it. Groups requesting more than $3,000 must have 501(c)(3) status. Applicants should demonstrate other financial support; requests relying entirely on GRF are discouraged. Grant funds must be used for stipulated purposes, and grantees must submit a use and effectiveness report within one year and acknowledge GRF support publicly. The fund does not cover general operating expenses except April Fund grants, debt reduction, wages, endowments, requests with little other funding, or puppy mill auctions and dispersal sales.
Deadline: GRF does not have specific funding cycles or grant request deadlines; requests are accepted on an ongoing basis.
