Tractor Supply Customers Show their Passion for Shelter Pets during "Relief for Rescues" Fundraiser
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.
Tractor Supply and MuttNation Foundation have collaborated since 2019 and together support MuttNation’s annual Mutts Across America program, providing grants to animal shelters nationwide. Tractor Supply is also the exclusive home for MuttNation pet products. A percentage of all MuttNation sales goes to the MuttNation Foundation to further support its mission to promote and facilitate adoption of shelter pets.
Little Red Wagon Pet Supply Drive
As part of its support of Miranda Lambert and the Music City Rodeo, Tractor Supply hosted a "Help Us Fill the Little Red Wagon" pet supply drive to benefit shelter animals in the Nashville community.
Held on May 28 at the Tractor Supply tent outside Bridgestone Arena, the activation encouraged rodeo fans to donate pet food, toys, treats and other pet care essentials for local shelter pets. To thank participants, the first 100 donors received a Tractor Supply gift card.
Donated supplies were collected during the event and donated to Metro Animal Care and Control in Nashville, helping provide needed resources for animals awaiting adoption. The activation reflected Tractor Supply's ongoing commitment to supporting animal welfare and caring for pets in the communities it calls home.
MuttNation Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, was founded by Lambert and her mother, Bev, in 2009, with a mission to promote the adoption of shelter pets, spay and neuter and to provide assistance to shelters during times of natural disaster.
