Sirius is the biggest shelter for homeless animals in Ukraine. Since 2000, they have been sterilizing and finding a permanent home for dogs and cats, helping to humanely solve the problem of a huge number of homeless animals. They have helped over 10,000 animals loving home.

When the war broke out between Russia and Ukraine, Sirius jumped into action to help animals impacted. Every day, they risk their lives to ensure innocent animals get the urgent medical care they need and have food, water, and a safe place to rest.

SPCA International is inspired by Sirius Shelter’s courage and determination. We are honored to call them a partner and are committed to supporting their life-saving work.

Chimp Haven’s mission is to provide and promote the best care of sanctuary chimpanzees and inspire action for the species worldwide. As
the world’s largest chimpanzee sanctuary, Chimp Haven is home to more than 300 chimps formerly used in biomedical research. There, on over two hundred acres of beautiful, forested land in Keithville, Louisiana, the chimps spend their days in an environment designed especially for them – complete with expert veterinary care, multi-acre forested habitats to explore, large, dynamic social groups, and healthy foods and enrichment prepared for them daily. Regardless of their past challenges, Chimp Haven is focused on their future, ensuring every chimpanzee has a beautiful new life at the sanctuary.

SPCA International is inspired by the remarkable work that Chimp Haven is doing. We are thrilled to partner with them and collaborate to provide a happy home for even more rescued chimps.

The Jerusalem Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (JSPCA) has been the only large shelter providing a safe home for strays since the 1940s. They house approximately 350 dogs and cats at any given time, and our Jerusalem clinic treats countless abandoned animals every week. Their ultimate goal is to find loving homes for every animal in need.

While in their care, Jerusalem SPCA ensures these needy animals have a warm bed and loving caretakers and will never be hungry or hurt. They offer subsidized spay and neuter clinics to combat animal over-population. They also provide veterinary care for sick and injured pets of low-income community members.

SPCA International is impressed by the incredible work Jerusalem SPCA has been doing for nearly a century. We are proud to support their work and are excited to work together to improve the lives of stray and shelter animals in Israel.

Daily Hugz is the largest animal sanctuary in the West Bank, offering shelter to homeless and abused animals and providing a safe play environment for children in Palestine. Their mission is to create and promote a space where all life matters by serving the most underprivileged members of society and allowing them to interact with nature and rescued animals.

When the conflict between Israel and Hamas erupted, the animals at Daily Hugz were in immediate danger. With roadblocks and new restrictions, the team at Daily Hugz struggled to secure the necessary food and medical care for the animals. Faced with these challenges, the sanctuary made the heartbreaking decision to close its doors, prioritizing the safety of the 65 dogs in their care.

Without hesitation, SPCA International stepped in to assist with this critical mission. After weeks of meticulous planning, our team successfully transported the 65 dogs from Palestine to the United States. Once the dogs had a chance to decompress, they traveled across the country to partner shelters, foster homes, and, eventually, forever homes.
We are honored to have supported Daily Hugz in this vital rescue mission. Thanks to their dedication, these animals have a second chance at a happy, healthy life.

The mission of Fayetteville Animal Protection Society, Inc. (FAPS) is to provide a licensed, No-Kill shelter for homeless animals until they are adopted into a loving and caring lifetime environment, to reduce the population of stray animals, and to promote responsible pet ownership. As a part of this mission, they rescue animals from county shelters, placing animals too young for adoption or needing medical care into foster homes where they receive care and love until they are ready for adoption. North Carolina ranks 9th in population and 3rd in animals euthanized. Therefore FAPS tend to put their saving efforts into the county shelters where animals are at the most risk of euthanasia.

Ensuring their shelter’s environment remains safe, clean, and comfortable for all its residents is paramount to them. This involves regular facility maintenance, cleanliness protocols, and procuring necessary supplies and equipment. Beyond their on-the-ground efforts, FAPS also leverages their active social media presence to advocate for animal rights, educate the public about the challenges faced by abandoned or mistreated animals, and highlight the joys of adopting pets from shelters. We are honored to call them our partners and to provide them with the necessary aid to maintain their shelter operations and continue to save countless lives.
