To be eligible to apply, Adoption Partners must have completed 100 adoptions in a PetSmart store in the U.S. or 50 in Canada over the last 12 months and in compliance with all PetSmart Charities policies, procedures, and reporting requirements.

The maximum grant in this category will be $250,000 in the U.S. and $40,000 in Canada. Transport grant requests may not exceed 50% of the organization’s overall transport program budget. PetSmart Charities transport grants will not support the purchase of vehicles.
