The AKC Reunite Grant is a 3x matching grant that provides funding to law enforcement agencies for trained AKC registered canines.
The grant funds up to $7500.00 for a $10,000.00 canine.
The Grant requires that each applicant have a local AKC club sponsor. Some local AKC clubs will sponsor departments and provide the initial $2500.00 in funding, however most departments become members of the uspca to fulfill the local sponsor requirement. Those that go through the USPCA, are required to include with the grant application a letter stating that the initial $2500 in funding is secured (whether from in house funding or a local business).
The AKC asks for the department to put a small sticker on the unit and take a picture. They post them on their website.
