Freelance Grant Writer — Chicago, IL

We need a grant writer for a fabulous animal rescue group that is creating a special sanctuary for cows. These cows are from a petting farm, are very well- kept and friendly, and were not raised for beef. Unfortunately, the farm is overcrowded, and the cows are going to be sold for slaughter unless we purchase the beautiful, 25-acre pasture we’ve got our eye on. If you’re a major animal lover, and you’d like to help Moo-donna, Milkshake and the gang, please write to us. We need grants (and other funding sources) to buy our beautiful, $179k spread of land and raise the operating costs. This place could become another wonderful escape to the country for city folks whose kids never get to see a cow. A bonus…one separate parcel of it may also become a primate sanctuary, as well.
