Grant Opportunities
The Right Grant
The ASPCA Right Horse’s shared goal is to massively increase adoptions so that all equines in need of support will be able to receive help. This grant opportunity is aimed at helping to realize this goal by supporting programs and processes that increase adoptions, focus on owner relinquishment intake, and/or help keep owned horses in their homes (through safety net programming).
In 2022, more than 25 groups received more than $900,000 in funding for projects related to increasing capacity, intake and adoption.
Reimagining Racers
ASPCA Right Horse Adoption Partners and organizations participating in the Warm-Up Ring are invited to apply for a grant to support an increase in capacity and/or efficiency of programs aimed at adopting out retired racehorses.
In 2022, over $300,000 was awarded to adoption organizations who support retired racehorses.
