Clock is ticking to apply for funding from the AAEP Foundation Grant applications due April 1
Organizations that share the spirit of the AAEP Foundation’s mission to improve the welfare of the horse are encouraged to apply for funding for the 2016 grant cycle. Applications are due April 1, one month earlier than in the past, and will be reviewed by the AAEP Foundation Advisory Council during its summer meeting.
Application instructions, requirements and selection criteria are available through the “Apply for Funding” link at
www.aaepfoundation.org. Applicants approved for funding will be announced in August.
The Foundation accepts requests for funding when these requests help facilitate accomplishment of its mission. Priority is given to requests having the greatest impact on the welfare of multiple horses on a national or interna- tional scope.
The Foundation has distributed more than $3.3 million since 1994 in support of its mission, including $350,320 in 2015 for 26 projects and programs ranging from schol- arships and equine laminitis research to Equitarian workshops and unwanted horse programs.
Funds from the AAEP Foundation support student program- ming at the annual convention and summer Focus meeting.
