Deadline: 21-Jun-21
The Animal-Kind International’s (AKI) 2021 Africa-Based Animal Welfare Organization Grant Program, AKI’s annual grant program, is intended to assist worthy Africa-based organizations, beyond the Partner Organizations, capable of implementing high impact projects aimed at improving the lives of domestic animals.
AKI is a US-based organization that raises funds for Animal Welfare, Rescue, and Protection Organizations in resource-poor countries.
They support their Partner Organizations and the funding typically covers the costs to operate shelters/sanctuaries for cats and dogs, community animal care clinics, street cat and dog care, spay/neuter programs, programs for working and abandoned donkeys and horses, and humane education in schools and communities.
AKI will only consider funding for:
- Projects that benefit cats, dogs, donkeys, and/or horses (secondarily, they will consider projects that benefit cattle, goats, sheep, chickens, and pigs).
- Existing organizations based in Africa that have been operating in the animal welfare sector for at least 3 years.
- Organizations that are currently and actively engaged in their communities to improve the lives of animals.
- Projects that can be completed within 6 months of receipt of funds.
- Projects that demonstrate sustainability and that give assurance the efforts will continue beyond the grant period.
The Grant Program reaches worthy Africa-based organizations, beyond the 11 Partner Organizations and supports them to implement high impact projects aimed at improving the lives of domestic animals.
This is the 4th year that they have been able to hold the only grant program that specifically targets animal welfare organizations in Africa!
