Creating Soft Landings for Animal Charities in SA
While many of us are gearing up for Black Friday and Cyber Monday during November, we thought we could find a way for you to Give Back this November too. Whether you want to donate, volunteer or participate in a charity event, here’s how you can make a difference for pets in need across South Africa.
Support Local Animal Charities
Many animal welfare organisations in South Africa do incredible work, from providing shelter and vaccinations to rescuing and rehoming pets. Here’s a quick look at some trusted organisations you can support:
- SPCA: With branches across the country, the SPCA focuses on rescue, adoption and animal welfare. You can make SPCA donations or adopt a pet from a nearby shelter.
- AACL (Animal Anti-Cruelty League): This organisation rescues, rehabilitates and rehomes animals, working tirelessly to prevent animal cruelty.
Support Local Foundations
From helping animals in underprivileged areas to running and raising money for dogs, these organisations provide soft landings for animals across South Africa in many ways.
These are only a few. There are so many more online. Search for an animal charity near you and show your suppawt!
How to Get Involved
1. Donate to Pets in Need
Monetary donations help charities cover vet bills, food and operational costs. You can also support them by donating food, blankets, toys and cleaning supplies.
2. Volunteer Your Time
Shelters always need extra hands. Volunteer to walk the dogs, clean kennels or foster kittens and puppies until they are adopted.
3. Spread Awareness
Share your favourite charities and how others can help show their support too. Spreading awareness about animals in need is one of the easiest ways to give back this November.
