Bethlehem Animal Rescue

Bethlehem shelter’s page Hi, my name is Kyle. I’m a US citizen and an ex US Marine that works in Jerusalem and i am the Assistant Manager at the Bethlehem animal Rescue (the only rescue or shelter in all of Palestine) that is located in Bethlehem. I have been to A LOT of countries that have rough conditions and the animals here have some of the worst. We are in dire need of help and we have no one to turn to. The Palistinian government is trying to have it shut down. The shelter has had their water shut off (ordered by the palistinian government) for over 7 months. They hardly have any food, sometimes no food. And it is a struggle to even get them water. Finding funds is almost impossible due to the community not appreciating animals. I am hoping you can help with putting our name out there or helping create a revenue by donating of some sort so that people know we exist. We have about 30 cats and over 70 dogs that all have to share only a few kennels. Fosters are even extremely hard to get and we are running out of space and fear that these animals could have a terrible fate. Locals try to poison and shoot the dogs with the government doing nothing to stop them. The locals steal the dogs on a regular basis, and just shot 108 dogs in 14 hours. We need to build a new shelter. A comfortable and safe one so that these animals are safe and warm and away from any problems. These animals need so much help, and they aren’t getting any.




I appreciate you taking the time to read this.
