</div>
<div>My name is Jelena and I am launching this fundraiser to support WagWag, an animal welfare organization based in Banja Luka, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
</div>
<div>I am personally from Bosnia and worked with WagWag before, and I have seen firsthand the challenges faced by animals living in local shelters. Public shelters in Bosnia operate with extremely limited resources, and many dogs spend their entire days inside enclosed kennel spaces without any access to the outdoors.
</div>
<div>Today, dozens of dogs at the city shelter in Banja Luka live in an adapted warehouse that has been divided into indoor kennels. Although they are safe and cared for, they currently have no possibility to step outside, feel the sun, breathe fresh air, or simply lie on the grass.
</div>
<div>That is why WagWag has launched a project to build outdoor sections connected directly to the existing kennels.
</div>
<div>The goal is simple but life-changing: every indoor kennel should have its own secure outdoor area, allowing the dogs to move freely between their indoor space and the outside environment whenever possible.
</div>
<div>These outdoor enclosures will give shelter dogs something they currently do not have:
</div>
<div>Daily access to fresh air and natural sunlight.
</div>
<div>More space to move, play, and explore.
</div>
<div>Better physical health and stronger muscles.
</div>
<div>Reduced stress, anxiety, and frustration.
</div>
<div>A more humane and dignified life while they wait for adoption.
</div>
<div>What Has Already Been Accomplished
</div>
<div>Thanks to previous donations and the dedication of WagWag volunteers, seven outdoor kennel sections have already been built at the shelter.
</div>
<div>The difference has been enormous. Dogs who once spent all their time inside can now enjoy the outdoors, rest in the sun, and experience a much better quality of life.
</div>
<div>However, many dogs are still waiting.
</div>
<div>This fundraiser will help WagWag continue building outdoor areas so that every kennel can eventually provide access to the outside.
</div>
<div>About WagWag
</div>
<div>WagWag is an organization committed to creating long-term improvements for animals in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

</div>
<div>How Your Donation Will Help
</div>
<div>Every contribution will be used exclusively for the construction of new outdoor kennel areas, including:
</div>
<div>Fencing and protective barriers.
</div>
<div>Construction materials.
</div>
<div>Ground preparation and installation.
</div>
<div>Everything necessary to create safe and functional outdoor spaces for the dogs.
</div>
<div>WagWag is committed to complete transparency and will regularly share photos, videos, progress updates, and invoices so that every donor can see exactly how their support is making a difference.
</div>
<div>Wall of Gratitude
</div>
<div>Anyone who wishes to become a permanent part of this project can choose to have their name included on a Wall of Gratitude that will be installed next to the new outdoor kennel areas.
</div>
<div>Thank You
</div>
<div>For many of these dogs, going outside is something they have not experienced in a very long time.
</div>
<div>Your donation will help give them access to sunlight, fresh air, and the simple joy of stepping outdoors.
</div>
<div>Thank you for supporting WagWag and for helping shelter dogs in Bosnia and Herzegovina live healthier, happier, and more dignified lives.
