Description
The Harry W. and Carolyn W. Galbraith Memorial Fund, administered by East Tennessee Foundation, supports animal care organizations with spaying and neutering programs for cats and dogs. Established in 2014, the fund primarily covers spay/neuter expenses for pets and stray or free-roaming cats. Funds may also support rabies vaccines.
The fund focuses on services for low-income cat and dog owners, seed funding to establish programs where none exist, and innovative programs that increase access to spay/neuter services for low-income pet owners. Funding preference goes to programs that make efficient use of grant resources and “stretch the dollar.”
