A 4896 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Makes FY2025 supplemental appropriation of $400,000 from General fund for grant to nonprofit organization to support purchase of pet food for pet owners undergoing medical care.

This bill appropriates $400,000 from New Jersey's General Fund as a supplemental grant to the nonprofit Living for a Cause. The funds will support its "Patient Pet Food Security Wellness Program," providing pet food to pet owners in Burlington County and surrounding areas who are undergoing medical care and facing economic hardship. The program aims to reduce the financial burden of pet ownership during medical treatment and prevent pets from being surrendered to shelters. The grant is specifically designated for this existing program, which has operated since 2023.
