Review for Animal-Kind International, Jemez Springs, NM, USA

Great non profit which benefits grass roots organizations in countries where animal welfare is still in infancy. 100% of donations go to the recipients and they do amazing work with it. Really makes a huge difference.

Review for Animal-Kind International, Jemez Springs, NM, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

If you have travelled abroad and seen huddles of hungry, mangey street dogs or seen a mule limping along carrying a hideously heavy burden and felt you wish you could do something but what? Donating to AKI is your answer. This is simply the poster child for non profit organizations. It works with small groups in developing countries where animal welfare is pitiful. It has an immediate impact on the communities whether it is sponsoring a rabies clinic in an area where people as well as animals die from a preventable disease or organizing training sessions to show farmers how to care for their donkeys through proper harnesses, wound care and proper nutrition. I don't know of many more non profits that have a 0% of donations used to cover salaries, administrative or other overhead costs. The founder Karen works tirelessly and for free - it's just a passion for some people. If you care about animals and the people who share the space in this world with these creatures, this is a wonderful organization to support.

Review for Animal-Kind International, Jemez Springs, NM, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Probably some of us have had an experience of traveling to a country where we have seen awful cases of animal suffering. We wonder what we can do to help - is there no one who is taking care of injured street dogs, packs of starving feral cats, overburdened beaten donkeys? The answer is that there are very few organizations working in these areas and even less donations flowing in to support them. I am so pleased AKI and its local partners are around to make a difference - both to the animals that they are helping, but also in changing people's attitudes towards animals and their potential for suffering. I've volunteered at a few of their sterilization clinics in Uganda and humane outreach sessions in classrooms - donations are going to the local staff and shelters who do the work on the streets and in the communities. It really is making a difference step by step.
