Transport Grant Request
Transport grants will require detailed information regarding the proposed transport. These grants are accepted on a case by case basis so that the van may be used in the most efficient manner.
The van can be used for animals located anywhere. Successful applicants will have a well thought out plan including quarantine, veterinary care and receiving organization. Additional funds may be available for these areas on a case by case basis.
All persons driving the transport vehicle must have a valid drivers license and auto insurance as required by Florida law.
