The Washington County Community Foundation (WCCF) is pleased to announce the creation of the Fund for Animal Care to support the care of domesticated and undomesticated animals with preference given to animal care within the Claysville and Donegal Township area.

The fund was created with a $10,000 contribution from retired McGuffey School District teacher Cathie Laird.

Ms. Laird first became aware of the WCCF when family and friends of Alice Boone Main created the Alice Boone Main Memorial Fund in 1999 to provide scholarships to McGuffey School District graduates. Through the years that followed, Ms. Laird contributed to various funds at the WCCF, created a scholarship in honor of her parents, the William L. and Barbara M. Laird Fund, to provide scholarships to graduates of McGuffey High School who aspire to become elementary teachers, and most recently joined the WCCF’s Family of Founders.

With a desire to help animals and the local community, Ms. Laird turned to the Community Foundation to establish the Fund for Animal Care. For domesticated animals, care may include, but not be limited to, food, shelter, veterinarian services, spaying and neutering services, and adoption services. For undomesticated animals, care may include, but not be limited to, support of animal preserves, veterinarian services, and spaying and neutering services.

Interested 501(c) (3) agencies may apply for grants from the Fund for Animal Care during the Foundation’s annual Designated Field of Interest grant cycle, with a deadline of July 1. For additional information on the Community Foundation, please visit www.wccf.net.
