Miranda Lambert
Nov 23, 2020

Miranda Lambert is expanding the efforts of her MuttNation Foundation through her MuttNation Fund with Waggle to help pets injured during natural disasters and people with senior dogs in need of medical care. Lambert's MuttNation Fund was formed in September in partnership with crowdfunding platform Waggle to help music community members impacted by Covid-19 with their pet’s medical expenses. The newly-expanded fund has been kickstarted with a matching grant donation, and 100% of the donations the charity continues to collect will be sent directly to the pet’s attending veterinarian. The first recipient of the newly-broadened MuttNation Fund at Waggle is Lilly, a 13-year-old Whippet mix from Harrington, NJ in need of treatment for liver cancer.
“Helping shelter pets during natural disasters has always been a core part of MuttNation’s mission and, this year, there’s been so many hurricanes they ran out of names; and the wildfires burned forever,” said Lambert. “After losing Waylon [Lambert's Golden Retriever] earlier this month – he was just shy of 13, I know how important and how costly it can be to keep our older pets healthy. Especially this year, and at this time of year, we’re so thankful to be able to do something to help people save their pets through our MuttNation Fund at Waggle.” Apply for support here.
