To advance the safety and well-being of animals.
A $105,800 grant to Worldwide Vets for a Ukraine mobile clinic is the largest recent award in the record, and it points to how Spca International Inc combines emergency animal aid with hands-on veterinary support. The foundation’s recent grants also show rescue transport, shelter operations, and sterilization work alongside disaster response and care for animals affected by conflict. In 2025, it funded Animal Balance for general care support and Brother Wolf Animal Rescue for Hurricane Helene disaster relief, both examples of direct service funding rather than broad, unrestricted philanthropy. Other awards went to organizations moving dogs out of high-risk situations, including transport missions tied to China, the West Bank, and the dog meat trade. The foundation’s stated purpose is to advance the safety and well-being of animals, and its grant record reflects that through support for shelters, clinics, and mission-based animal rescue. Recipients range from local humane societies to international animal welfare groups, with repeated support for some organizations over multiple years.
Animal care through mobile and low-cost veterinary services appears frequently. In 2024, Spca International Inc gave $100,000 to Street Dog Coalition for a mobile veterinary clinic in Ukraine, and in the same year it gave $10,000 to Operation Git-meow for a free veterinary clinic. Spay and sterilization work is another clear thread: Lawrence County Humane Society received $11,000 in 2025 for a low-cost spay/neuter program, while Uniquely Paws received $11,600 for sterilization and vaccination costs. The foundation also supports transport-based rescue. Daily Hugz received $23,288 in 2025 for transport preparations for dogs from the West Bank to the US, and China Rescue Dogs received $62,500 in 2024 for rescue transport for 21 dogs from China to the US. Disaster and conflict-area relief shows up in awards such as $20,000 to Brother Wolf Animal Rescue for Hurricane Helene disaster relief.
Typical grants sit in the low five-figure range: p25 is $8,575, the median is $10,500, and p75 is $22,466. The recent record includes both larger project awards and many smaller program grants, with multiple organizations appearing in more than one year, such as Putnam County Spca, Paws Unite People, Daily Hugz, Operation Git-meow, and Visiting Veterinarians International. Spca International Inc is an operating foundation, not a fund for individuals, and it does not make program-related investments. Its grantmaking is program-specific and often tied to direct service, supply support, transport, or facility needs rather than open-ended general support.
