*Large Grant made November, 2001
At the November, 2001 AGSDCF Board meeting, the Officers & Directors approved a $50,000 grant as long as the AKC Canine Health Foundation made a matching grant of $50,000 for a total of $100,000. The $100,000 will be used for research that will benefit the German Shepherd Dog. The AKC Canine Health Foundation has agreed to the match and the funds have been forwarded to them. Noted researchers are submitting proposals to the AKC Canine Health Foundation. Both organizations have to agree on the proposal that will be funded. As of May 31, 2005, the AKC Canine Health Foundation Donor Advised Fund has a balance of $41,282 that has yet to be allocated for canine health research.
