The incredible work by our project partner Friendicoes is made possible because of the compassion and generosity of our supporters.  Your donations enable life-saving treatments, rescues and ongoing care for working and abandoned animals in need. Every act of kindness you extend brings relief and hope.

The LAZAWO team recently conducted a major clinic in Masinono village, providing treatment to 257 donkeys for various conditions, including wounds, trypanosomiasis, tick infestation, eye infections, worm infestations, and colic. Of these, 149 were new cases, while 108 donkeys received follow-up care from previous clinics or weekly para-veterinary visits.

During November 2024, LAZAWO carried out a comprehensive mobile clinic in the small mining communities of Geita. Thanks to our incredible supporters LAZAWO can bring much-needed care to working donkeys. Your commitment directly contributes to lifesaving treatments, critical interventions, and education that improve the lives of these animals and their owners.

In the northern reaches of Kabul, Afghanistan, where Nowzad has been running its Working Animal Programme since 2022, our vet team was called out to a poor foal in a shocking state. The young horse had tragically lost her ears to a vicious dog attack when she couldn’t get up back up after her tethering rope had wrapped around her legs and she’d fallen over.

This past month has been one of reflection and remembrance as the sanctuary said goodbye to the beloved Soni. While her journey has come to an end, her story continues to inspire a steadfast commitment to providing care, compassion and dignity to every animal at the sanctuary.

This past month shows the importance of their mission, from rescuing abused donkeys to addressing preventable injuries, while working towards a future where every donkey is treated with respect and compassion.

Proper hoof care is so important for the health and well-being of horses, ensuring they can move comfortably and avoid painful injuries or infections. Thanks to the generosity of AAA supporters, essential items like shoes, nails and tools have been supplied to empower farriers and improve the lives of working horses on Gili Trawangan Island in Indonesia.

Thanks to the incredible support of our generous donors, APOWA’s team brought essential care to 94 working animals this month through their mobile veterinary clinic. Horses and oxen who support their communities received the help they needed - vaccinations to protect them, treatments to heal their wounds and check-ups to ensure their well-being.

Your generosity empowers our work and strengthens our partnerships, including with the wonderful and compassionate team at VSPCA. We’re grateful to share their latest update with you - showcasing the care and life-saving impact your donations have made, from rescuing 52 bulls from neglect to rescuing Rocky from a ritualistic sacrifice.

Thanks to the incredible support of our compassionate AAA community, Starting Over in Israel continues to bring kindness and healing to donkeys who have endured so much. Every rescue, every moment of care and every happy ending is only possible because of you.
