Kendra & Danniele Volunteer to Help Street Dogs in Sri Lanka
One year ago, we both started our new careers with Embrace Pet Insurance. Little did we know, that it would also be the start of an amazing friendship.
In mid October, we will be traveling to Sri Lanka to help WECare Worldwide with their CNVR (catch, neuter, vaccinate, release) efforts in the south of the country.
In order to make this happen, we are going to be doing some serious fundraising. Anything we raise will go towards travel, room & board, and donations to help cover the expenses for WECare Worldwide to continue their CNVR efforts in southern Sri Lanka.
It is estimated that there are anywhere from 1-3 million street dogs in Sri Lanka, a country that is roughly the size of West Virginia. Not only does this make life difficult for all of them, but it has a significant impact on the human population as well. Rabies is still a very real threat in many developing nations, and Sri Lanka is no exception. The human and dog population also face difficulties due to limited resources on their small island. WECare Worldwide is working towards controlling the epidemic of overpopulation and rabies in Sri Lankan street dogs. On top of their CNVR program, they treat the already sick and injured animals plus teach the human population about animal welfare and responsible pet ownership.
Please consider donating to help us make this volunteer opportunity a reality. Every little bit helps. Thank you so much! Along the way, we will be taking turns posting updates about all the work we are doing.
