Life-Saving Rescue Work
Your support of PETA’s Global Compassion Fund helps rescuers respond to animal emergencies at a moment’s notice.
The war in Ukraine isn’t just a catastrophe for humans – it’s one for dogs, cats, and other animals as well. With support from donors to PETA’s Global Compassion Fund, PETA Germany is working hard to ensure that every animal at the border or in Ukraine gets the care they desperately need.
Each month, the team is delivering 80 metric tons of food! Check out PETA US’s blog for the latest on the work that’s being done, thanks, in part, to the Global Compassion Fund.
With resources provided by the Global Compassion Fund, PETA Asia was the first group to reach the Philippines’ remote Taal volcano after its devastating eruption in early 2020, and during much of that relief work, its team members were the only ones there.
They put their lives at risk for weeks to reach animal victims of the disaster, gently coaxing them from ruined buildings and piles of ash and debris. Rescuers docked at the ash-choked volcanic island each morning on boats packed with food and veterinary supplies and left each evening with a boatful of animal passengers awaiting veterinary treatment – and, later, adoption into loving homes.
Donors to PETA’s Global Compassion Fund help animals like Arrow – a long-neglected dog found by a PETA UK rescuer in the wake of a massive explosion in Beirut that left hundreds dead. Today, he shares his life with three other beloved dogs in a home in the city’s hills.
The Global Compassion Fund helps PETA India’s Emergency Response Team respond to urgent cases of abuse and neglect at all hours of the day and night – often when no one else is willing or able to take action. Kind people from across India contact the team for help when they learn that an animal has been beaten or struck by a car, when horses are being illegally raced, when wild animals are illegally held in captivity, and in many other emergencies. PETA India’s trained staff responds to almost 1,000 such calls every week!
PETA’s Global Compassion Fund also supports rapid-response and relief programmes in other regions – from providing a neglected dog in Petra, Jordan, with urgent veterinary care to delivering supplies and aid to animal victims of hurricanes and other disasters.
Spreading Compassion Around the Globe
In Romania, hundreds of thousands of dogs and cats live on the streets or in the woods, struggling to find scraps of food to eat and clean water to drink. Very few have anyone at all to look out for them.
Backed by the Global Compassion Fund, PETA Germany and Romanian group Eduxanima are implementing a massive, multipronged initiative to reduce suffering and animal homelessness – sterilising and treating thousands of animals each year.
In the Philippines, the Global Compassion Fund is supporting the organisation behind landmark sterilisation drives in desperately poor areas near Manila. In Mexico, it helped launch an epic spay-a-thon that will prevent thousands of dogs and cats from being abandoned on the streets of Cancún.
The generosity of Global Compassion Fund donors is also helping Animal Rahat – a wonderful group supported by PETA. It has successfully sterilised 100% of the animals in more than 20 villages around the Indian state of Maharashtra and is working towards the same success in many more.
