Help animals suffering from the devastating flooding in the Philippines

September, 2009: The worst flooding to hit the Philippines in over 40 years has taken its toll, filling streets and homes with mud and storm water. While people struggle to recover, aid is also desperately needed for the hundreds, potentially thousands of stranded animals left hungry, homeless, and alone in the wake of this devastation.

Worse, two storm systems are developing and on track to hit the same area of the Philippine Islands, putting everyone -- human and animal -- at risk again.

The International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW), well-experienced in emergency operations to save animals, is sending a water rescue team to the Philippines to provide direct emergency relief for animal survivors. IFAW has already worked in the past with the Philippines Animal Welfare Society (PAWS) on optimal rescue tactics, and providing logistical and communications assistance in the field.

You can help. Donate $25 towards IFAW's relief efforts and help provide a happy ending for some of the voiceless survivors of this natural disaster. IFAW works to improve the welfare of wild and domestic animals throughout the world by reducing commercial exploitation of animals, protecting wildlife habitats, and assisting animals in distress. IFAW seeks to motivate the public to prevent cruelty to animals and to promote animal welfare and conservation policies that advance the well-being of both animals and people.
