Animal-Kind International Blog
On the AKI Blog, we publish in-depth, intermittent articles about our supported organizations and other animal welfare organizations working in resource-poor countries around the world. Each AKI Blog post features an AKI Partner Organization, AKI Grant Recipient, or an individual or organization making a difference for animals in low income/resource-poor countries, where there is very little public support for animal welfare. In posts about our supported organizations, you'll also find details of how they've used your donations to AKI.

After Fondation Alliance Verte in Haiti completed their Animal-Kind International-funded grant project, we knew they still needed a lot more support to help their rescued cats and dogs. So we awarded them a top-up grant for vet care of their shelter pets. When you read about Blacky, you'll see why we're so grateful we could help this special dog, as well as 3 newly rescued cats.
