Review for SPCA International, New York, NY, USA
There is nothing more praise worthy than a note-for-profit that is created to help others. SPCA International is that not-for-profit. They set the bar so high that this organization should be the template for all other companies whether they are not for profit or for profit.
SPCA International has a program that rescues dogs and cats from Iraq. This program is called Operation Baghdad pups. While serving overseas in Iraq, my husband befriended a stray dog that we referred to as Mommie, since she was days away from giving birth. Sadly the puppies all passed away within 3 months. He feel in love with her over the months of her following him around during his day. We knew he would one day leave Iraq and return home and he was devastated with the notion of leaving Mommie behind. We sent an application to SPCAI to be considered for the Operation Baghdad pups program and we were told they would love to help us bring Mommie back to the US to her forever home with us. While in Iraq, there were many life threatening incidents along the way for our new furry family member and with every harrowing incident in this war torn country, Lori Kalef , the program manager, stepped in and rescued Mommie from hell by contacting people who worked, in Iraq, with SPCAI. She knew just who to call to fix the situation until it was time for Mommie to fly home. She was there for us, all hours of the day and night and I have never meet anyone with this much love to help others. She doesn’t see this as a job, she sees this as the success to her life and that is to bring joy to others whether they are humans or animals. With all the awful things that are happening to our world, it was wonderful to work with an organization that is there to do all they can to make this world right….If only for our furry family members and their loved ones.
