Double Your Impact for Animals and Communities in Ukraine

MAKE A GIFT NOW

Double Your Impact for Animals and Farmers in Ukraine

As we speak, dogs, cats, and more across Ukraine's frontlines are facing unimaginable realities. Scared. Injured. Starving.

We urgently need your help to raise $15,000 to continue lifesaving rescues, emergency veterinary care, — and to spark long-term change for Ukrainian small-holder farmers and their farm animals.

Right now, your gift can go TWICE as far to save lives and build a better future

DOUBLE YOUR GIFT NOW

Thanks to a generous donor, every dollar you give will be matched 1:1 — up to $15,000. That means double the food, double the medicine, and double the hope for injured, abandoned pets and small-holder farmers fighting to survive.

Your Gift Will Save Lives — Now and in the Future

Your donation today helps rescue and treat animals like Vitalik, a dog found injured and alone. But it also does more — it lays the groundwork for sustainable veterinary care and farming support across Ukraine.

With your support, we can:

  • Expand veterinary training and services in underserved areas
  • Provide poultry kits (chicks, feed, and medicine) to farm families
  • Help rebuild rural livelihoods through animal-based agriculture
  • Continue to help rescue and treat injured animals

Here’s how your lifesaving gift can be doubled for 2x the impact:

$38 Feeds twice as many hungry pets
$67 Covers two rounds of emergency veterinary care
$115 Doubles access to veterinary training in local communities
$145 Rescues two animals from danger
$218 Supports two families with farming supplies and care
$500 Builds lasting, community-led animal health systems
 
This is your chance to make a lifesaving, future-building impact — and every dollar you give today will be matched to go even further.

MATCH YOUR GIFT NOW

*Thanks to our generous match donor, your donations will be matched up to $15,000 until Saturday, May 31, 2025, at 11:59 PM ET.
