Helping Stray Animals is a volunteer‑run foundation supporting rescuers who care for abandoned, injured, and vulnerable animals around the world. Since 2009, we have worked with trusted local partners to provide food, medical care, shelter, sterilisation programs, and emergency aid for animals that would otherwise receive no help. Our mission is simple: to strengthen the people who save lives every day.
We operate with complete transparency and zero overhead costs. Our team of five volunteers manages every project personally, ensuring that all support goes directly to the animals and the rescuers who protect them. No salaries, no offices, no administrative expenses — only practical, direct help where it is needed most.
On this website, you can explore recent aid projects, learn how we work, and meet the rescuers we support in countries such as Serbia, Romania, Indonesia, India, and many others. Each project is carefully selected and monitored, giving supporters clear insight into how their contribution makes a real difference.
By working closely with local volunteers and small shelters, we create sustainable solutions that improve animal welfare in the long term. Together, we give animals safety, dignity, and a second chance at life.

Cerasela saves dogs from death…
.
Gedoneerd: €8.240
Al lange tijd was de opvang van Cerasela Matei aan renovatie en uitbreiding toe.
Maar het kwam er gewoon niet van. Als er geld was, was het altijd nodig voor allerlei andere belangrijke dingen.
Zoals voer, stro, middelen tegen vlooien

A stray‑animal clinic on the Gili Islands.
Gedoneerd: €11.775
We wilden graag een stuk grond kopen voor een nieuwe kliniek, maar door sterk stijgende prijzen op Gili Air was er geen geschikte of betaalbare optie.
Daarom blijven we werken vanuit ons huidige gehuurde pand, dat centraal, betaalbaar en efficiënt te gebruiken is.

Georgeta is completely worn out.
Gedoneerd: €7.185
De afwikkeling van het project van Georgeta nam wat meer tijd in beslag dan gewoonlijk. Geta, zoals ze door iedereen wordt genoemd spreekt geen woord Engels dus een tolk was vaak onontbeerlijk.
Maar…… de eerste kleine successen zijn geboekt!!!
We sell unique pet products, toys, snuffle mats, audio stories, and much more.
All proceeds go directly toward sterilisation projects.

In addition to emergency projects, we also support sterilisations for stray animals.
Our 8,000 to 10,000 operations per year are even the highest of all animal welfare organizations in Western Europe.
Donate especially for this!
View the list of sterilisation clinics we support.
Over the years, we have organised many special projects to make the sterilisation of stray animals possible.
Here are the clinics we support on a regular basis.
We are asking for donations to support local stray animal projects, through a monthly main project and two smaller projects, for sterilizations and education, as well as for EMERGENCY AID.
For urgent animal assistance, we have created an Emergency Aid Reserve Fund so that we can provide it quickly even if we receive urgent requests.
