Van for Galgos at Refugio Esperanza
Donation protected
You can help Refugio Esperanza to help better mistreated spanish Galgos by funding a new much needed van.
Refugio Esperanza is a home based refuge run privately by a finnish couple Atalja and Leo in Malaga area, Spain. Leo works full time so basically the refuge is the responsibility of one person - Atalja.
At RE there is no kennels for the dogs, they live as homelike as possible and the maximum amount of galgos at time is around 15 to keep it under control and also to have time to work with each dog also individually. Usually they come with old injuries and they can be very traumatized.
The main focus is to help Galgos but also other dogs in need.
Why is a new van so much needed?
The old car although its a big SUV, it's not really suitable for transporting big dogs. There is not enough space for cages and the interior is impossible to disinfect which would be really important. Often there is a need to buy building materials as there is always something to fix and everytime it's a problem to get the materials to the finca. With a van could fit also large materials easily and it would not delay anything in need of fixing just because there is no transport.
And the current car is incredibly expensive to drive. It's a v8 / gas!
The van is just so much needed! Used van such as Transporter t4 or similar. We have set the goal to 5000€ but tryingthe best to find it cheaper.
Please help - little strokes fell great oaks.
THANK YOU.
