Donations
The Hope for Strays Foundation is a registered non-profit Foundation in Thailand that receives no financial support, except for the donations of people who care about the dogs. We have been feeding dogs through the district, providing medical care for those who are injured or sick, and sterilizing those animals we are able to catch and take to a vet. We also operate and maintain shelters that now house 300 dogs. This has been an expensive operation but is becoming even more expensive as we try to expand our coverage.
We can only continue through the donations of people who care about the dogs. If you would like to help there are several ways you can contribute.
Monetary Donations
Monetary donations are very necessary to pay for services, like medical care from a veterinarian, and for food and other supplies, we need on a daily basis.
Paypal
To donate through Paypal we need you to send us the amount and currency and the email address connected to your Paypal account. We will send you an invoice which can be paid with a click. This is due to government rules at this time. You can use the contact form below to send us the information.
Some people have been successful in making a donation from their Paypal account by addressing the payment to either @HFSFoundation or joe@hopeforstrays.org
Donation of Supplies
A large portion of our expenses are supplies we buy to feed and care for the dogs. There is always a list of things we need to buy. The most common needs are:
- Food - we use about 100-120kg of food per day. Most is dried dog food and some is meat products from the local market with rice.
- Tick prevention medication - Bravecto, Nexguard, etc.
- Leashes and collars
- Bedding materials/ blankets
- Cleaning supplies including disinfectants
- Dog shampoo
If you would like to donate any of the above items please contact us on our contact page or by email at admin@hopeforstrays.org.
Volunteering
If you would like to help the dogs directly, please consider volunteering a little of your time. We can always use assistance with feeding dogs around the area, give dogs baths and walking them, or perhaps, providing a foster home for a dog while we search for a permanent home. If you would like to volunteer a bit of your time to help these dogs then please contact us on our contact page or by email at admin@hopeforstrays.org.
