Raising money to build a shelter for stray dogs

The amount of money needed to build a shelter for stray dogs is really serious and frankly not within the means of most organizations trying to help animals in need. For this reason, you can often find fundraising campaigns to raise money to build a shelter for homeless animals - whether it is just for dogs; cats or other abandoned animals.

Unfortunately, good intentions alone are not enough to build a shelter. As we have already said - it takes a lot of money to provide at least minimal living conditions for homeless dogs. Such a shelter also has ongoing costs related to utilities; food for the animals; medicine, etc. Often they are staffed by volunteers who don't even take a single lev for the work they do in the shelters!

Adopting animals from shelters is becoming more and more popular, yet the number of abandoned pets exceeds the number of adopted pets, shelters say. So even after the shelter is established and the necessary funds are raised, it will need ongoing donations and help to keep it running. The position of the state towards this problem is extremely insufficient at the moment, and about the work in this direction, it is better not to comment at all.

Why we need more shelters for stray dogs

The more shelters for stray dogs there are, the more animals will be saved from the harsh conditions of life on the streets. This also protects people - there are those who are very afraid of dogs. Also, a dog left to live in squalor - without food, and perhaps abused, can really be a danger. The Pavel Andreev Foundation strongly supports the idea of creating shelters for homeless dogs, as well as helping existing ones. If you have an idea along these lines that needs funding, feel free to set up a fundraiser on our website for donations.

It is recommended that you develop a plan to raise money on an ongoing basis. Donations are usually the main source of funding for the most successful organizations. Check out the campaigns posted on PavelAndreev.ORG that have already completed successfully. Or take a look at the active campaigns in the Animals category. From these you can use ideas on how to structure a successful campaign. An example of such a campaign is Save Flynn's leg. He needed an arthrodesis to fix his leg in the right position so he could move again.

It is important to start by developing a comprehensive plan. The plan should include several different fundraising strategies that seek resources from several different groups of donors. The Paul Andreev platform is an excellent choice for a place to post your donation campaign.

What help do shelters need

When a donation is made, naturally, it's a good idea for it to be useful and put to use. So if you're considering helping a shelter, it's a good idea to think about exactly how to do it. Naturally, help can be both tangible and intangible. Here are some ideas on how you can be really helpful:

• Dog food;
• thick and thin preserved or new blankets;
• collars, harnesses and leads;
• dog beds;
• metal utensils, feeding pots and water;
• dog toys;
• indoor dewormers;
• rewards and treats for animals;
• time - if you have free time that you can devote to volunteering at the shelter, you will certainly be very useful, you will delight the dogs with care and attention and you will make it easier for the shelter's founders.

How much money does it take to build a shelter for homeless dogs?

It is very difficult to give a specific amount needed. It depends on a number of things, so it is individual for each case. However, it is certainly large. Another important thing is that it is certainly not finite and we at the Pavel Andreev Foundation are fully aware of this. Unexpected costs can /and probably will/ always come up. Also, when the shelter is established, a steady income will be needed to provide food, warmth, medical care and in general - everything needed for the sheltered animals. All in all - the idea of creating a shelter for stray dogs is superb and very noble, but it is very difficult to implement individually without support. The most common way to set up and maintain a shelter is by raising donations. And the best way to do it - create a charity campaign to create a shelter for stray dogs on PavelAndreev.ORG.

When it comes to creating a shelter where defenseless animals can be sheltered and cared for, you're really likely to find supporters for your cause. In case you have a desire to help an animal or support an initiative related to stray dogs, you can do so by fundraising on pavel andreev.
