Global Strays

Animal shelter support grant programglobal Strays provides monthly support to animal shelters located in areas of the world which largely lack resources for animal welfare initiatives. Our partner shelters serve communities that are underfunded, poverty-stricken, and overlooked. They are in desperate need of assistance for their animal rescue programs and the maintenance of their shelters. Through Global Strays' animal shelter support grant program, these shelters receive the funding required to operate and continue saving the lives of animals in need.

Educational program - nicaragua & colombiaglobal Strays educational workshops engage youth with our unique curriculum, teaching the foundations of animal welfare and compassionate animal care. Our staff in nicaragua and colombia teach these programs while working closely with our programs director on the curriculum and other logistics. Our curriculum continuously expands to address the educational needs that our local staff observe in their communities while considering the broader cultural environment.

Spay, neuter & veterinary care (wellness) program Global Strays offers spay, neuter, and veterinary care clinics, free of charge, to families with pets in communities that would otherwise not have access to these services. Currently, these programs operate in bogota, colombia and throughout nicaragua. Veterinarians examine pets and perform spay and neuter surgeries, while Global Strays staff on the ground brings together communities in need of these services. Our program director is in charge of overseeing and working in conjunction with our staff and veterinarians on the ground.

Emergency veterinary grant program:this program provides the funding for animals recently rescued in need of emergency veterinary care in order to survive. For certain organizations, we have allocated an emergency veterinary care fund which goes directly to veterinary expenses for animals rescued from dire circumstances. That is part of our monthly upkeep grant program. Typically, this can be considered a grant program falling under our monthly upkeep program for animal shelters, unless we pay the veterinarian directly.

Pet food pantry program:this program provides pet owners in financial crises with pet food. This program was set up in response to the struggles associated with the covid-19 pandemic.
