Namaste, Dear supporters, readers, and animal lovers.
As we write, we treat 49 injured dogs and cats receiving life-saving vet treatment in our shelter and foster homes. Another 22 paralyzed, disabled and senior dogs, puppies, and cats live in the sanctuary. About 15 recovered dogs waiting for adoption or release.
We became GlobalGiving, permanent partners, 15 months ago, which passed by with flying colors! We are very thankful to all our fantastic supporters. In 15 months, we saved 500+ lives, sterilized 550+ dogs and cats, and completed shelter, sanctuary, and Clinic construction projects.
The steep dip in world economies and the sharp shoot-up of inflation resulted in raised expenditure and lesser donations. These lesser donations are detrimental to us. The donations have decreased in the recent past, but demand and need for service never go down.
Our rescue model has so many challenges. Exploding street dog population, a high number of accidents, abuse, cruelty, and high discrimination. We still managed successful adoptions. So proud of our team, supporters, and ourselves.
Supporters are pillars of our success. The impact you make is very, very real – and it's HUGE. These deserving dogs get their chances at extraordinary lives ONLY because of awesome people like you!
We are thrilled to inform you that our shelter expansion in 2022 is nearly complete. In the newly acquired 1/4th acre land adjacent to the current 1/4th acre shelter we have built.
While we are thrilled, we struggle to keep the clinic functional with medicines, supplies, and equipment.
Our pride does not fulfill here, and our service does not end here. We are yet to achieve much more than the accomplishments we did this year in the future.
Yet to achieve goals for the year 2022
We’re making big, bold asks of our long-time supporters – and that’s you! Can we count on you to support our work with a one-time gift of $100 or $1,000?
We still need funds for clinic medicines, equipment, supplies, and generator.
All new donations will help complete the Clinic. Please donate and help us reach the goal.
Please remember that donations are life savers.
Monthly donations are even fabulous. GlobalGiving matches one month after four months of donations for new monthly donors.

===================
At Stray Animal Foundation of India, we strive daily to serve the uncared, unloved, neglected street animals. We rescue, transport the injured, rehabilitate, sterilize and put up the animals for adoption.
We would like to see these numbers multifold with all your cooperation and contribution in the coming future.
For an Animal Shelter to sustain the growing number of neglected and injured street animals, multiple material and human resources must be maintained. That's where your contributions are put towards. One can only understand the financial support our foundation would require to travel the long waylaying ahead of us. Actions speak a thousand words. Let's come together and put our hearts to a beautiful cause.
