To the Point
May we give to individuals for vet care?
As a 501(c)(3) organization, we give contributions to specific breed rescue groups to help pay for veterinary costs incurred while rescuing a purebred dog that meets our criteria. Most of the organizations are (c)(3)s. We often get requests from individuals who rescued a dog that meets the criteria for funding from us. These individuals are always members of our over 2000-member organization. Is it okay for us to give reimbursements for vet care to an individual/member?
