We’ve been working with Animals Sense Sostre for over three years
Shelter needs
Animals Sense Sostre (Homeless Animals) is a shelter located in Vallirana with a population of roughly 150 dogs. Although the shelter staff gives their all every day, they always need help to do the extra work that really changes the lives of the animals living at the shelter. This includes disinfecting areas, organizing spaces, walking the dogs, socializing, and giving extra care to dogs with special needs, etc.
A beautiful relationship
We’ve been collaborating with Animals Sense Sostre on a regular basis for over 3 years. Our relationship began because the dogs rescued by Voluntarios Itinerantes from Odena were kept at a residence where the shelter is located. What started as occasional help to walk a dog or clean a specific area, evolved into a symbiotic relationship between the two associations. We can say that Voluntarios Itinerantes would not be the same without Animals Sense Sostre and vice versa. This shelter gives us a space where we can train new volunteers, as the majority of newcomers start their volunteer journey at this shelter. We work together to continue growing and improving the lives of animals.
Ho do we invest your contributions?
Voluntarios Itinerantes has contributed over than 20 outings with more than 200 volunteers, who have contributed more than 1000 hours of volunteering at Animals Sense Sostre. We train new volunteers at the shelter. We have also held fundraisers for specific projects. In 2020, we purchased €950.89 worth of materials and €2,848.98 worth of dog and cat food.
