Animal rights in Vietnam

Donation protected
PLEASE NOTE: The amount raised is for an ongoing campaign that started in fall of 2017, so the amount listed is not actually what we have in the account. 

Vietnam Animal Aid and Rescue, an animal rights organization with a rescue shelter and farm sanctuary is slowly moving up to Hanoi over the next 6 months. We have been working in Vietnam for 5 years already, are the only vegan animal rescue and farm sanctuary here, and we even had the very first nonprofit vet clinic in Vietnamese history for 2 and half years that we unfortunately had to close due to lack of funding.  Now after all these years and hundreds of rescues, we need to close and get homes for most of the 35 animals we still have on the property to care for.  The lack of consistent funding, veterinarians, and staff/volunteers which are vital for running a rescue has made it so that there is no way to stay open.  it is an extremely difficult part of the world to work in animal rights, and we have done our best but have to end this over the next year in Hoi An.  

We are working hard to get the animals adopted away from central Vietnam to either Hanoi, Saigon, or internationally to where they can access proper veterinary care that does not exist at all in our region.  It is terrifying to deal with even the most simply problems with vets who completely lack the training, skills, and tools to effectively manage cases. We will not let more animals in Hoi An that we have rescued suffer and die at the hands of poorly trained local vets.  They need out and with your help, we can continue their care in Hoi An for the next months that it will take to get them adopted far away from this horrible situation we are in with these vets. 

Please consider adopting one of our rescues and sharing our page with organizations and individuals who can help.  

THANKS so much!
