Katie Campbell is the President and CEO of RedRover, a national animal welfare nonprofit organization based in Sacramento, California. Campbell assumed this role in March 2024. Campbell has been with RedRover for eight years, previously serving as the Director of Collaboration and Outreach.

Since 1987, RedRover has been a lifeline for animals in need. As a national animal welfare nonprofit, we're there for animals during emergencies, disasters, and times of crisis. Our three programs work together to provide comprehensive support: RedRover Relief offers grants for emergency veterinary care, including the Safe Housing and Purple Leash Project, which helps domestic violence survivors and their pets escape abusive situations. RedRover Responders, known as the "Red Cross for animals," deploys to disaster zones and rescues animals from puppy mills and hoarding cases. And through RedRover Readers, we're teaching the next generation about compassion and empathy. Join us to learn more about how RedRover is making a real difference for animals across the US and Canada. Web: https://redrover.org/ Mission: Our mission is to bring animals out of crisis and strengthen the bond between people and animals through emergency sheltering, disaster-relief services, financial assistance, and education. We accomplish this by engaging volunteers and supporters, collaborating with others, and maximizing the use of online technology. RedRover Relief: Offers pet parents grants and resources for animals in need of emergency veterinary care. Through this program, Safe Housing & Purple Leash Project (sponsored by Purina) grants also help domestic violence (DV) survivors escape abuse with their pets. Since 2012, RedRover has awarded 237 Safe Housing grants to shelters in 47 states, totaling more than $5.2 million. Additionally, Safe Housing grants have created the first pet-friendly domestic violence shelters in 10 states! We also created a collaborative project with Greater Good Charities’ Rescue Rebuild program, called Dontforgetthepets.org (DFTP). This program helps domestic violence, homeless, and animal shelters create custom pet housing programs to fit the needs of their communities - everything from design and construction to policies and procedures. RedRover Responders: Known as the "Red Cross for animals," we temporarily shelter and care for animals displaced by natural disasters or animals rescued from puppy mills and hoarding cases.
