Dear Friends,

 

The World Society for the Protection of Animals (WSPA)

urgently needs your help to care for animals in the

tsunami zone. As a new year begins, the world is united in

its shock and sadness at the terrible human tragedy

following the disaster. In the face of such overwhelming

human adversity, it is all too easy to forget the animal

victims of the crisis... but not for the people of WSPA.

 

With over 50 years in global animal care, WSPA's Animal

Rescue Team is hard at work for the animals who lost so

much. Every penny donated to this appeal will be spent on

improving the lives of animals in the tsunami affected region. Please

donate today: http://www.care2.com/go/z/20578

 

Here's what your emergency funds will provide:

 

* Food & water for the homeless pets: Dogs and cats suffer greatly

during disasters that remove their normal food

supply. Wet food is critical as a water source, as water

supplies have become contaminated by salt water - making

animals ill.

 

* Mobile clinics to deliver medicine & care: Specially

outfitted vans allow veterinarians to travel throughout

the disaster zone treating animals in need. These are also critical

tools for vaccination programs to stop local

governments from resorting to dog poisoning as a rabies

prevention program.

 

* Establishment of an emergency reaction team: Creating an organized and

equipped coordination group to help all

animal welfare organizations, veterinarians and government officials to

work together in the coming weeks and months.

 

* Rebuilding & Training: WSPA will continue to work with

local animal groups and veterinarians to deliver ongoing

aid to animals, to rebuild animal welfare facilities, to

provide disaster preparedness training and to deliver

supplies where they are most needed.

 

Your gift of $30, $50, $100, $1,000 or more will mean the

world to the animals whose normal lives have been so

devastated by the tsunami. Please give what you can.

 

Won't you please donate today?
