<div>Hi, my name is Suzanne Davidson and I'm fundraising for a small shelter called <strong>Amigos de Animales in Vilcabamba, Ecuador. </strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For years, Amigos de Animales has provided a safe haven for abandoned, abused, and neglected dogs in the beautiful valley of Vilcabamba, Ecuador. Every dog that arrives at our shelter deserves a chance to heal, feel safe, and eventually find a loving home.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Today, we need your help.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>When we first established our shelter in Cucanama, it was a peaceful rural location with only a few distant neighbours. Sadly, that has changed dramatically. The area is rapidly becoming a suburb, with new homes, constant construction, increasing traffic, and many more people living nearby.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On weekends, the neighbourhood often becomes a party destination, with loud music playing until 6:00 a.m. and frequent fireworks. Throughout the week, construction workers, passing dogs, and constant activity keep our rescued dogs on high alert.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Many of our dogs have already experienced trauma. They should not have to live with continual stress and fear.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Even worse, the shelter has become too small for the number of dogs we care for, limiting our ability to rescue other animals desperately needing help.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>We Found the Perfect New Home</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>After months of searching, we have found a wonderful new property.</strong>
</div>
<div>❤️ Quiet countryside
</div>
<div>❤️ No nearby neighbours
</div>
<div>❤️ Plenty of room for the dogs to run and play
</div>
<div>❤️ Safe walking paths
</div>
<div>❤️ Covered shelter for sleeping at night
</div>
<div>❤️ Only 10 minutes from town on good roads
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>It is everything our dogs deserve.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Now we simply need the funds to move.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>How Your Donation Will Help</strong>
</div>
<div>Your generosity will directly pay for the costs of relocating the shelter:
</div>
<div>• Fencing materials – USD $750 (approximately CAD $1,065)
</div>
<div>• Entrance gates – USD $300 (approximately CAD $425)
</div>
<div>• First month's rent – USD $300 (approximately CAD $425)
</div>
<div>• Moving truck – USD $80 (approximately CAD $115)
</div>
<div>• Labour to build the fencing (3 workers × 4 days) – USD $300 (approximately CAD $425)
</div>
<div>Total relocation costs: USD $1,730
</div>
<div>To ensure these costs, plus GoFundMe transaction fees and currency conversion, are fully covered, our fundraising goal is CAD $2,600.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Every Dollar Makes a Difference and Goes Directly to caring for the dogs</strong>
</div>
<div>Whether you can give $10, $25, $50, or $100, every donation brings us closer to giving these deserving dogs the peaceful home they desperately need.
</div>
<div>If you're unable to donate, you can still make an enormous difference by sharing this campaign with your family, friends, and social media networks.
</div>
<div>Together, we can give these wonderful dogs the quiet, safe future they deserve.
</div>
<div>From all of us at Amigos de Animales—and especially from every wagging tail waiting for a second chance—
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and support. ❤️
</div>
<div><br />

<div>URGENTE – ¡AYÚDANOS A TRASLADAR EL REFUGIO DE AMIGOS DE ANIMALES A UN LUGAR SEGURO!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Durante años, Amigos de Animales ha brindado un refugio seguro a perros abandonados, maltratados y descuidados en el hermoso valle de Vilcabamba, Ecuador. Cada perro que llega a nuestro refugio merece la oportunidad de sanar, sentirse seguro y, finalmente, encontrar un hogar lleno de amor.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Hoy necesitamos tu ayuda.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Cuando establecimos nuestro refugio en Cucanamá, era un lugar rural, tranquilo y con muy pocos vecinos. Lamentablemente, eso ha cambiado por completo. La zona se está convirtiendo rápidamente en un suburbio, con nuevas viviendas, construcción constante, mayor tráfico y muchas más personas viviendo cerca.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Los fines de semana, el vecindario suele convertirse en un lugar de fiestas, con música a todo volumen hasta las 6:00 de la mañana y frecuentes fuegos artificiales. Durante la semana, los trabajadores de la construcción, los perros que pasan y la actividad constante mantienen a nuestros perros rescatados en un estado permanente de alerta.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Muchos de nuestros perros ya han sufrido traumas. No deberían tener que vivir con estrés y miedo constantes.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Además, el refugio se ha quedado demasiado pequeño para la cantidad de perros que cuidamos, lo que limita nuestra capacidad para rescatar a otros animales que necesitan ayuda con urgencia.
</div>
<div>Encontramos el hogar perfecto
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Después de meses de búsqueda, hemos encontrado una propiedad maravillosa.</strong>
</div>
<div>❤️ Campo tranquilo
</div>
<div>❤️ Sin vecinos cercanos
</div>
<div>❤️ Muchísimo espacio para que los perros corran y jueguen
</div>
<div>❤️ Senderos seguros para pasear
</div>
<div>❤️ Refugio techado para dormir por las noches
</div>
<div>❤️ A solo 10 minutos del pueblo por una buena carretera
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Es exactamente el lugar que nuestros perros merecen.
</div>
<div>Ahora solo necesitamos los fondos para realizar la mudanza.
</div>
<div>¿Cómo ayudará tu donación?
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Tu generosidad cubrirá directamente los costos del traslado del refugio:</strong>
</div>
<div>• Materiales para el cercado – USD $750 (aproximadamente CAD $1,065)
</div>
<div>• Portones de entrada – USD $300 (aproximadamente CAD $425)
</div>
<div>• Primer mes de alquiler – USD $300 (aproximadamente CAD $425)
</div>
<div>• Camión de mudanza – USD $80 (aproximadamente CAD $115)
</div>
<div>• Mano de obra para construir el cercado (3 trabajadores × 4 días) – USD $300 (aproximadamente CAD $425)
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Costo total del traslado: USD $1,730</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Para garantizar que estos costos, junto con las comisiones de GoFundMe y la conversión de moneda, queden completamente cubiertos, nuestra meta de recaudación es de CAD $2,600.
</div>
<div>¡Cada dólar se destina directamente al cuidado de los perros!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Cada dólar hace la diferencia</strong>
</div>
<div><strong>Ya sea que puedas donar $10, $25, $50 o $100, cada aporte nos acerca un poco más a ofrecerles a estos perros el hogar tranquilo y seguro que tanto necesitan.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Si no puedes hacer una donación, también puedes ayudarnos enormemente compartiendo esta campaña con tu familia, tus amigos y en tus redes sociales.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Juntos podemos darles a estos maravillosos perros el futuro tranquilo y seguro que merecen.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>De parte de todo el equipo de Amigos de Animales y, especialmente, de cada colita que espera una segunda oportunidad...
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>¡Gracias por tu bondad, tu compasión y tu apoyo!</strong> ❤️
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
