AKI Partner Organizations in Namibia

​Our partnership with Have-a-Heart (HaH)-Namibia began in 2016, when HaH started Namibia's first mobile spay/neuter service. Namibia is a large, sparsely populated country, much of it is extremely poor.  The mobile s/n clinic traveled to areas with no accessible vet care and AKI supported many HaH s/n clinics in remote towns.

 

Based on HaH's priority needs over the last few years, at HaH's request, we've been supporting an AKI-HaH Emergency Fund and HaH's Lifetime Care Program, which provides booster shots and anti-parasite treatments for all s/n clients--for life.

​

In the 1st half of 2023, with AKI funding, 491 dogs and only 1 cat : ( received care from HaH's Lifetime Care Program. The AKI-HaH Emergency Fund helped over 50 cats and dogs in the 1st 7 months of 2023. (See AKI Blog posts below for their stories.)

**************

The AKI-HaH Emergency Fund is for use-at the discretion of HaH, AKI, and the attending vet​- and is meant to help previous HaH-Namibia clients who have been spayed or neutered. If an animal needs vet care funding from the Emergency Fund, but hasn't yet been s/n'd, the requirement is that s/he will be s/n'd once well enough. It is specifically to be used for no/low income families who wouldn't be able to afford the vet care without a little help from our Emergency Fund.
