Emergency Disaster Relief Projects

The Problem:
 

When disasters strike, from hurricanes to wildfires to war zones, animals are often forgotten, left starving, injured, or displaced. Rescue groups on the ground are overwhelmed and lack funds, transport, and emergency supplies.

Our Solution:

AVDAF’s Emergency Relief Project works hand in hand with partners in disaster zones to provide food, supplies, funding, or veterinary support as quickly as possible. Since 2021, this project has collaborated with approximately 50 organizations or individuals and helped rescue or feed more than 5,000 animals. By acting quickly and strategically, we ensure that aid reaches animals when they need it most.
