BURLINGTON, N.C. -- Burlington Animal Services received a big boost from the Rachel Ray Save Them All Grant.

The $20,000 grant will help support and expand the community cat program.

More importantly, the grant will help cut down on euthanasia at the shelter.

The Rachael Ray Save Them All grants help fund projects that will reduce shelter deaths through targeted spay/neuter, adoption, trap-neuter-return, intake prevention programs, and any project that directly reduces shelter deaths.
