Animal Heroes supports Ellie Lukenge, an animal rescuer from Uganda who has saved over 5,000 animals and manages Animal Lifeline Uganda, a registered shelter.
Recently Ellie helped uncover a large criminal network of fake animal shelters where animals were deliberately injured, abused, and starved in order to collect donations online. Investigations are still ongoing, but 12 fake shelters have been closed down and 12 owners have been arrested.
Together with his team of undercover investigators, Ellie rescued 153 dogs from horrific conditions and these animals need urgent help.
How can you help?
Ellie has asked us for urgent support for the following:
🥣 Food (1 week of food per dog: €7)
✂️ Sterilisation (€70 per dog)
🏥 Medical care for 8 injured animals (€600)
🛏️ 6 Kennels urgently needed (€125 per kennel)
🧸 Blankets (€4.50 per dog)
💉 Rabies vaccination (€2.50 per dog)
💊 Deworming (€3 per dog)
100% of your donation goes directly to supporting these rescued animals.
Every donation — big or small — helps abused animals recover from trauma, heal from their injuries, and receive a second chance at life.
