Program Services
| Description | Grants | Expenses |
|---|---|---|
| PROVIDED DIRECT SERVICES TO ANIMALS IN NEED, INCLUDING 89 CATS AND DOGS IN 2020. DIRECT SERVICES INCLUDED TRAP-NEUTER-RETURN FOR COMMUNITY CATS, SUBSIDIZED SPAY/NEUTER FOR CATS AND DOGS, COMMUNITY CAT CARETAKING AND ASSISTANCE TO CARETAKERS, CONSTRUCTION OF SHELTERS AND FEEDING STATIONS, HELP WITH MEDICAL BILLS FOR INDIVIDUAL ANIMALS AND FOR THE AGENCIES THAT RESCUE THEM, FOSTERING, ADOPTION SUPPORT, AND TRANSPORTING DOGS FROM SHELTERS IN KENTUCKY AND SOUTHERN STATES WHERE THEY WERE AT RISK OF EUTHANASIA TO NORTHERN STATES WHERE FOSTER AND ADOPTIVE HOMES WERE AVAILABLE FOR THEM. MADN PROVIDED ADDITIONAL INDIRECT ASSISTANCE TO MORE ANIMALS THROUGH TRAINING AND CONSULTATION, ONLINE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES ON OUR WEBSITE AND FACEBOOK PAGES, REFERRALS AND SUPPORT SERVICES | $0 | $15,480 |
| COVID 19 FORCED THE CANCELLATION OF ALL PLANNED TRAINING CONFERENCES AND ON THE ROAD WORKSHOPS AFTER MARCH 2020. FORTUNATELY, A GENEROUS DONOR COVERED THE COST OF VIDEOTAPING OUR ON THE ROAD WORKSHOPS ON MARCH 10, 2020, SO WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO POST THOSE PRESENTATIONS ONLINE FOR THE ANIMAL WELFARE COMMUNITY AND THE PUBLIC AT LARGE TO ACCESS AT THEIR CONVENIENCE AND AT NO COST.WE HOPE IT WILL BE SAFE TO PRESENT OUR MAKING A DIFFERENCE CONFERENCE IN LEXINGTON AND SEVERAL ON THE ROAD WORKSHOPS IN DIFFERENT KENTUCKY COMMUNITIES IN 2021. BOTH PROGRAMS HAVE BEEN EXTREMELY WELL-RECEIVED, WITH 100% OF ATTENDEES WHO COMPLETED THE EVALUATION INDICATING THEY WOULD RECOMMEND THE TRAINING TO OTHERS.OUR CONFERENCE AND WORKSHOPS ARE EXTREMELY IMPORTANT AS ANIMAL WELFARE SERVICES AT ALL LEVELS ARE PROFOUNDLY UNDERFUNDED IN KENTUCKY WITH MANY ORGANIZATIONS HAVING NO FUNDS FOR TRAINING OR TRANSPORTATION TO CONFERENCES. THE ON THE ROAD WORKSHOP PROJECT WAS BEGUN IN 2019 AND ENABLES MADN TO REACH PEOPLE IN OR NEAR THEIR HOME/WORK COMMUNITIES, SAVING THEM TIME AND MONEY, AND PROVIDING NETWORKING AND SUPPORT WITH PEOPLE IN THE SAME GEOGRAPHIC AREA STRUGGLING WITH THE SAME ANIMAL WELFARE CHALLENGES. | $0 | $8,317 |
| COVID WREAKED HAVOC IN MANY AREAS OF ANIMAL WELFARE, MAKING A DIFFICULT AND OFTEN HEARTBREAKING SERVICE EVEN MORE CHALLENGING. UNABLE TO CONDUCT IN-PERSON TRAINING EVENTS, MADN PARTNERED WITH SEVERAL SISTER AGENCIES TO PRESENT ONLINE WEBINARS AND CONTINUED TO DEVELOP AND STRENGTHEN COLLABORATIVE RELATIONSHIPS AND TO PARTICIPATE IN COALITIONS THAT EXPAND OUR REACH AND IMPACT FOR HELPING ANIMALS AND INCREASING PUBLIC EDUCATION AND ADVOCACY. MADN HAD 178 REGISTRANTS FOR THE ONE ON THE ROAD WORKSHOP WE WERE ABLE TO OFFER AND THE WEBINARS IN WHICH WE WERE INVOLVED. WE DO NOT KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE BENEFITTED FROM THE TRAINING INFORMATION PROVIDED ON OUR WEBSITE AND FACEBOOK PAGES OR OUR ONLINE PROFILES.PRIORITIES INCLUDE ENHANCING THE ABILITY OF SHELTERS AND NONPROFITS IN UNDER-RESOURCED COUNTIES TO HELP MORE ANIMALS, IMPROVING PUBLIC UNDERSTANDING OF ANIMAL WELFARE AS A COMMUNITY ISSUE RATHER THAN A SHELTER ISSUE, AND THE NEED FOR BROAD-BASED ADVOCACY TO ADDRESS THE WOEFUL STATE OF KENTUCKY LAWS AND REGULATIONS IN ANIMAL WELFARE AND PROTECTION. KENTUCKY WAS RANKED DEAD LAST OF ALL 50 STATES IN ANIMAL WELFARE AND PROTECTION FOR 13 YEARS STRAIGHT. BECAUSE THE ANIMAL WELFARE COMMUNITY WAS ABLE TO INFLUENCE THE LEGISLATURE TO FINALLY PASS A LAW IN KENTUCKY BANNING BESTIALITY IN MARCH 2019, KENTUCKY MOVED UP IN RANKINGS FROM 50TH TO 47TH. A SECOND LAW GRANTING VETERINARIANS THE RIGHT TO REPORT SUSPECTED CURELTY AND ABUSE MOVED US TO OUR CURRENT RANKING OF 44TH. WHILE KENTUCKY NO LONGER HAS THE DISTINCTION OF HAVING THE WEAKEST ANIMAL PROTECTION LAWS IN THE COUNTRY, A CLEAR NEED REMAINS FOR ADDITIONAL EFFORTS TO PROTECT ANIMALS IN OUR STATE. | $0 | $2,869 |
