About us
Animal Heroes is a growing international emergency aid organisation, with headquarters in The Netherlands and partners in Finland, US, Italy, Turkey, Ukraine, Greece and the Westbank. We help local “Animal Heroes”: people who rescue, protect and care for animals in acute emergencies under harsh conditions.
Our professional team of volunteers have experience in animal charity organisations, corporate business, veterinary, biology, marketing and logistics. Our goal is to help animals by raising awareness and funding for Animal Heroes projects with donors, media and corporate sponsors. We don’t do politics or activism. Our sole focus is on emergency aid for animals.
