Sanju Sanctuary is a kitten rescue that nurtures, hand-rears, and homes abandoned kittens. Run by an amazing couple, and surviving on donations and grit, Sanju is an important link in managing the feral cat population in Jávea. This Teaming Group is focused on medical care for rescued kittens. This includes vaccinations, medications, medical procedures, and helping other local organisations with trapping, neutering & colony control .

In Spain, supports for Special Needs Education are available in public schools and in government-funded programs and services, in which the main languages of education are Spanish/Valenciano. The educational opportunities for children with learning challenges in English, French, German, Russian or other languages are virtually non-existent in most regions of Spain. DAR Association supports children who learn differently, and all funds raised go educational services.

Animal Charity Akira was formed in 2011, and opened a shelter in 2016. A monthly allowance is given by both Benissa and Teulada Moraira town councils towards the running costs of the shelter, but this is less than the cost of the veterinary bills for the dogs in their care, so AKIRA needs donations to help provide for the dogs. We are constantly fund raising but you could help by sparing just 1 euro per month to help provide a safe, friendly, caring environment for the dogs.

Life for Javea's street cats can be challenging and without controlling the population it rapidly grows. (One female cat can give birth every four months to four kittens!) As a legal, official non-profit organisation we use the humane method of trap, neuter and return to try to prevent so many kittens being born on the streets. More than 6000 cats have been sterilised to date. We also help feral/street cats in distress, ill or injured and have a team of volunteers who feed our many colonies.

Spread some Sunshine raises funds to feed kids in care and provide essential provisions to families in need on SW coast of Sri Lanka. Each month we provide basics of rice, lentils, fruit, juices and toiletries. During the Covid 19 pandemic we are also sending money to purchase materials to make masks, the villagers have no protection at all. Please help by donating just 1 euro a month. People are going hungry, please help us to feed them.

We are a dog shelter in Xabia, Alicante, Spain set up in 1999. Our shelter provides a safe place for dogs that have been lost, abandoned, mistreated, or given up by their owners until they can find their forever home. We are a large shelter who rely mainly on donations for the general running costs of the shelter and the care of the dogs. We supply medication, food, shelter and care for our dogs every day of the week all year round, and care for them as they are our own.
