Proof that your support turns into real meals and real relief

• Donations In Action

Jelena’s small sanctuary in Serbia is carrying a huge load — more than 90 dogs, 20 cats, 7 sheep, 2 pigs, and 2 goats, many of them arriving sick, with puppies, or needing vaccines. When she wrote, “I don’t know how much you can send… but I need puppy vaccine ASAP,” Animals First Aid didn’t wait. We rushed €300 from reserves so she could buy vaccines and food immediately. She even posted a public thank-you, showing the stacks of food you helped her buy and writing, “thank you friends for thinking about us ❤️” — proof that your support turns into real meals and real relief for a shelter that is often forgotten.

But emergencies like this aren’t one-time. Jelena’s vet bills and food costs keep rising, and with so many animals, she can’t afford a gap in help. That’s why Animals First Aid is creating a dedicated emergency fund for Jelena — so the next time she says “I need help now,” we can send it now, not next month. With steady support, she won’t have to choose between vaccines and food, and every dog, cat, and farm animal on her property will stay fed, treated, and safe.

If you can give today, you’ll help refill what we pulled from reserves and keep this sanctuary stable. Together we can make sure Jelena never has to beg to feed her animals — she just sends the message, and we answer.
