"Everything starts with someone’s
daydream” was the vision for the establishment of the
Kittyhawk Animal Foundation. The name commemorates Leslie’s
long-time equine companion, Kittyhawk.
Kittyhawk Animal Foundation
was registered as an Alberta charity on September 29th,
2005, and received federal status in May of 2007. The board
of directors consists of Leslie and Noel Dowler (the
founders), Dr. Deborah Carroll and Jennifer Simmonds.
The endowment fund created by the
founders distributes funds annually to local area rescue
groups for their ongoing efforts to save the lives of
animals.
Kittyhawk Animal Foundation invites
applications on an annual basis from rescue groups in the
greater Edmonton region who meet the necessary
qualifications. Funding is available on May 31st
of each year. |
