Enhance a Family's life by Caring for their Donkey
Donkeys are the economic lifeblood of many families in Egypt.
Yet many fail to understand the basics of animal welfare,
subjecting their donkeys to abuse, injuries, sickness, and a
shortened life-span, thereby jeopardizing the family income.
The Society for the Protection and Welfare of Donkeys in Egypt
dispenses veterinary care (treatment and prevention) as well as
educates the owners about humane treatment and animal welfare. Your gift will cover an entire year of veterinary
supervision of a donkey and training for the
owner.

17) Medical Assistance for the
Disabled in Garbage City
Some 40,000 people live in the Mokattam Garbage City, the
largest of its kind. Partly as a result of the unsanitary
conditions in which they live, many of them are handicapped or
disabled. A young and enthusiastic team of 35 volunteers,
all residents of Garbage City, care on a monthly basis for
around 250 people. They raise some of the needed funds
themselves and contribute money from their own small salaries.
But this is not enough to cover the more expensive items such as
surgeries, wheelchairs, and medication for chronic cases.
Please help pay for the big ticket items.

Well Baby Clinic

visits whenever necessary. The Well Baby Clinic offers for
free a simple but comprehensive program of early detection of
childhood diseases, inoculations, and basic health education.
