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.
S 3745 allocates $400,000 from New Jersey's General Fund to the nonprofit Living for a Cause to support its existing "Patient Pet Food Security Wellness Program." This grant helps patients undergoing medical care in Burlington County and surrounding areas who face economic hardship by providing pet food, preventing them from surrendering pets to shelters due to cost. The funding directly assists low-income patients managing both health treatment and pet care expenses. The program, launched in 2023, has been distributing pet food through partnerships with local food pantries and home delivery services.
