Harrison Jr. Foundation makes cash grants to animal welfare organizations around Virginia. In Furbish Thrift, the Foundation built a sustainable revenue stream through retail sales of goods donated by the community. Profits from Furbish Thrift are reinvested in the animal welfare community through grants and our programs.
Since we began, we have distributed almost a half million dollars to animal welfare organizations. The William A. Harrison Jr. Foundation makes cash grants to animal welfare organizations around Virginia.
Our competitive grant cycle is held annually in January. We recently concluded our annual grant allocations for 2026. Every proposal shared challenges organizations face as they work to save lives.
We funded 16 proposals for a total of $62,500. We funded a number of Southwest Virginia groups in 2026 due to one common factor: lack of financial resources for veterinary care. One proposal shared a visit to the nearest vet was a 150- mile round trip.
This compounded the problem of not being able to afford vet services in the first place. Our next grant cycle will open January 2027. Several times throughout the year we make discretionary grants.
These grants made in response to recommendations by our board members in line with our grantmaking priorities. Furbish Thrift is a thriving, dynamic community hub. Store benefits are held about 6 times each year and highlight an organization for a weekend.
We donate a percentage of sales to the beneficiary organization and promote them on our platforms helping increase visibility and support.
