New Organizations:
• Between July 15 and August 15: Public charities interested in participation must submit an initial application. Once approved as a Member, the information provided by the charity will be displayed on its Equine Welfare Network profile.
Once approved as a Member:
• Between December 1 and December 31: All member public charities will need to verify the information displayed on its Equine Welfare Network profile and any additional information requested by the EQUUS Foundation. The verification process is Step One of your charity's Guardian submission.
• Between January 1 and March 31: The charity's Step One submission will be reviewed following the receipt of the veterinary assessment from the charity's veterinarian. The charity will have 10 days from the date that the charity's Step One information has been reviewed to respond to any questions arising from the review. Upon approval of the Step One information, the charity will have completed the Annual Verification process and remain on the Equine Welfare Network. At that time, the charity will also be provided with access to Step Two to complete the Guardian process.
• On or before June 30: Upon approval of the Step Two information, the charity will receive a notification by email whether the Guardian designation has been approved or deferred. Once approved, Guardians may participate in all programs, including other grant programs.
• On or before August 31: Equine Welfare Grant Recipients will be selected.
• Between September 1 and September 30: Equine Welfare Grant Recipients will be notified by email and financial support will be disbursed.
