Animals suffer every day in Tanzania from cruelty, neglect and disease. Help us give them the love and care they deserve.

We’ve founded a Veterinary Centre of Excellence in the Arusha Region of Tanzania. We need your help to equip it and save more lives.

1500 children die of rabies every year in Tanzania, bitten by infected dogs. Our Four Steps approach protects both animals and children.

Meet our international veterinary team

Run entirely by volunteers and funded entirely by donations, we are a small, Scotland-based charity, saving lives in Tanzania since 2015.

Helping animals every day: our team of grant-funded and volunteer vets care for suffering animals in Tanzania, from our base at Mbwa wa Africa: the Arusha Region’s only registered animal shelter.

Securing a safer future for animals and humans: canine-transmitted rabies kills 1500 children every year in Tanzania, creating fear, hatred and violence towards animals. Our vaccination and education campaigns save lives by paving the way to a rabies-free future.
