Publish date: 2024-07-02

NASHVILLE, TN (CelebrityAccess) — For the fourth consecutive year, Miranda Lambert’s MuttNation Foundation is partnering with retailer Tractor Supply Company to donate more than $250,000 to support animal shelters across the U.S.

Additionally, as part of the foundation’s Mutts Across America program, one shelter or foster-based rescue in each state (along with Washington D.C. and a ‘wildcard’ pick) will be honored with a $5,000 grant.

“Mutts Across America is such a great program because it gives us the chance to highlight an amazing shelter in every state and thank them for the hard work they do throughout the year,” shared Lambert. “We especially love honoring the shelters that work with the dogs that are hardest to get adopted. We’re so proud to have such a strong and supportive partner in Tractor Supply sharing our values and goals to help as many shelter pets as possible live their best lives.”

Since the initiative was launched a decade ago by Lambert’s mother and MuttNation co-founder, Bev Lambert, Mutt Nation has helped to support more than 500 shelters in the U.S with more than $2 million in grants.

Tractor Supply has been partnering with Mutt Nation for the past four years and the two organizations launched the Relief For Rescues Fund in 2023 to help shelters and shelter pets recover from natural disasters. To date, the fund has raised more than $1 million dollars to support shelters recovering from emergencies such as floods, fires, tornadoes, and other emergent events.

Tractor Supply is the exclusive retailer of MuttNation pet products, with a percentage of all sales going to the MuttNation Foundation to promote and facilitate its mission.

Lambert will mark MuttNation’s 15th anniversary on October 5th with a benefit concert at Ascend Amphitheater in Nashville. The full details for the show, including a lineup, will be announced in the coming months but the event will be sponsored by Tractor Supply.
