From May 26 to June 7, Tractor Supply customers donated to the Relief for Rescues Fund at checkout, either in store or at TractorSupply.com. Tractor Supply and Miranda Lambert’s MuttNation Foundation established the Relief for Rescues Fund in 2023. Since then, more than $1.6 million has been allocated to over 166 shelters and rescues in the wake of hurricanes, floods, wildfires, tornadoes and other devastating events.
“Anyone who knows our customers realizes pretty quick that their pets are truly part of the family,” said Kimberley Gardiner, Tractor Supply’s chief marketing officer. “That’s why this partnership with Miranda and MuttNation resonates so strongly. When disasters strike, shelters and rescue organizations often face overwhelming challenges, and our customers never hesitate to lend a hand. Their generosity continues to make a meaningful difference, helping provide care and support for animals when they need it most.”
When natural disasters strike, Relief for Rescues provides funds directly to impacted shelters and rescues, as well as organizations offering boots-on-the-ground assistance, covering all aspects of recovery: food, supplies, veterinary care, transport and repairs. In 2025 alone, MuttNation Foundation deployed hundreds of thousands of dollars from the Fund to assist with recovery from multiple disasters, including the California wildfires in January and the Texas Hill Country floods in July.
“Animals are some of the most vulnerable victims of natural disasters, and after seeing the devastation of events like the Texas floods, I’m more committed than ever to making sure Relief for Rescues is there for every shelter that needs us,” said Lambert.
The three-time GRAMMY Award-winning superstar partnered with Tractor Supply to create the Relief for Rescues Fund after witnessing the lack of resources available to animal shelters after catastrophic events. Together, they launched an in-store and online Tractor Supply fundraiser, using the initial money raised to create a dedicated fund.
