SAINT JOHN, New Brunswick, April 19, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) When the pandemic struck and borders closed to most travelers, many animal rescue agencies struggled to transport rescued dogs to shelters where they could receive care and connect to fosters or adoptive families. For months, Professional Truck Drivers have been volunteering to bring rescues on their trips across the Canadian-American border, or from one region of Canada to another.

EVANSVILLE, Ind. (WFIE) - New grant dollars are set to make a big difference for animals at the Vanderburgh County Human Society.
The $25,000 Rachael Ray Save Them All Grant will allow VHS to create a new full-time Foster Coordinator role, which is set to be filled by a current employee.
The Coordinator will take charge of recruiting foster families, onboarding, training and will oversee the medical and socialization needs for the shelter’s animals.
“It’s kind of a 24/7 hour job. It’s been difficult watching people do that on top of all their other duties, so I am very excited to have someone who is dedicated just to that,” shared VHS Development Coordinator. “And we can hopefully retain more foster parents and hopefully save more kittens.”
