In July, UAnimals helped

more than 17,000 animals

Throughout July, we continued rescuing animals across Ukraine: evacuating them from frontline areas, transporting them to shelters and families, providing medical treatment, sterilization, and support for shelters. We also worked on cases of animal cruelty — reported incidents to the police, monitored the progress of investigations, and ensured that abusers were held accountable. In July, we spent 4,000,056.92 UAH (≈ $89,487).

We are deeply grateful to everyone who donates, volunteers, shares our posts, tags us, and leaves messages and comments of support. Together, we save lives!

Here is what we managed to achieve in July 👇
