Earlier this month, Maddie’s Fund® gave four organizations at random a $2,500 grant for attending the May Weekly Community Conversations for a total of $10,000 in grants.

Join us in congratulating the four people who won a grant for their organization:

  • Deeann Harper, Happy Trails Animal Rescue (Orlando, FL)
  • Melissa Gutierrez, Ludar Animal Behavior (Columbus, OH)

In addition to the Community Conversation grant, one grant was given away for monthly participation on Maddie’s® Pet Forum. Congrats to winner Maddie’s Pet Forum Monthly Giveaway Jenny Rapinchuk of Oregon Humane in Portland & Salem, OR for winning the $3,000 monthly grant.
