Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Animal-Kind International supports animal welfare organizations in poor countries, mainly in Africa, secondarily in Latin America/Caribbean. We raise money so they can spay/neuter, shelter, feed, and provide vet care for unwanted animals and in cruelty cases; conduct in-school and community humane education; and provide donkey and horse welfare programs. We support our Partner Organizations through ongoing disbursements so they always have a reliable source of funds and can focus on animal care and welfare. We reach and strengthen other animal welfare organizations through our annual Animal Welfare Organization Grant Program, providing funds for one-time projects based on a successful proposal. Through our Friendly Audit Program, we provide virtual volunteer mentors who provide technical and organizational support to target animal welfare organizations in Africa and Latin America/Caribbean.

Animal-Kind International supports animal welfare organizations in poor countries, primarily in Africa, secondarily in Latin America/Caribbean, and in Armenia. We raise money for them and raise visibility of their work. We track their use of AKI funds so we can provide this information to our supporters. We support our 11 Partner Organizations through ongoing disbursements. Additionally, new in 2018, we implemented a Small Grant Program for Animal Welfare Organizations in Africa, which will become an annual program. We also provide technical and administrative assistance to our partners and grantees, such as editing their reports and websites, advice on promoting their organizations on social media and through crowd funding, and technical advice about running shelters, rescues, and implementing other animal welfare activities.
