Natural disasters aren't the only crises for Florida shelters. Pet overpopulation, lack of space and resources, and limited access to funding are some of the biggest challenges shelters face on a daily basis. FAAWO's network of members and partners are ready to help by arranging and executing the intra-state transport of animals and/or resources (food, supplies, etc.) to provide relief for struggling shelters.

A variety of transport modes can provide shelters with immediate, emergency, and temporary relief by, moving animals to safety, freeing up shelter space for additional animals, securing temporary housing, and providing greater adoption support. FAAWO facilitates collaborative efforts and alliances between organizations on a county, state, and national level.

Program details and resources coming soon. In the meantime, if your organization needs help transporting animals, please email us at [email protected].
