Mercy Work Foundation Grant

The Mercy Work Foundation of Oklahoma, established in 1992, is a philanthropic initiative managed under the umbrella of Bank of America's Institutional Investments & Philanthropic Solutions. This foundation is specifically dedicated to the perpetual care of small animals, with a focus on those in vulnerable situations such as strays or animals that are abandoned, homeless, sick, or injured. Its mission centers on ensuring compassionate and consistent care for these animals through grants that support a variety of essential services. The foundation provides financial assistance for initiatives that deliver care, shelter, food, veterinary services, and protection to stray, abandoned, homeless, sick, and injured dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens. Grants typically range between $5,000 and $20,000 and are awarded to qualifying charitable organizations operating in Oklahoma. Each year, the foundation usually makes between two to three awards. Eligible applicants are charitable organizations that serve animals in Oklahoma. No other eligibility categories or exceptions are mentioned, suggesting a focused but narrow eligibility scope. The foundation does not support individuals, governmental agencies, or organizations operating outside of Oklahoma. Applications for the Mercy Work Foundation of Oklahoma must be submitted by June 15. The application process is managed by the Bank of America Texas office. Prospective applicants are directed to consult procedural documents available in PDF or Word formats for detailed instructions.
