your impact: helping animals in crisis all around the world

It has been a year since the start of the war in Ukraine. When the news broke, IFAW turned to our supporters for help, and you answered the call with open hearts. Thanks to our generous advocates, we provided immediate aid at a most critical time to our established partner shelters in the country. IFAW will be helping animals in Ukraine and around Europe that have been and are still affected by the war for years to come.

In the past year IFAW has helped many animals who have fallen victim to many other disasters around the world including the floods in Pakistan and Western Australia, the cyclone in New Zealand and the earthquake in Turkey/Syria. These devastating disasters have left thousands of animals and people in need. We mourn the tragic loss of life, and our thoughts remain with the people and animals struggling for survival in the aftermath.

But thanks to you, and your belief in IFAW, we have been able to transform these stories of tragedy into opportunities for recovery and regrowth. We know there is still a lot of work to be done. IFAW is committed to the well-being of animals, people and landscapes of Ukraine, Turkey, Syria, New Zealand and many other countries enduring natural and man-made disasters — now and in the future.
