DONATIONS NEEDED!!! Great and Easy Way to Help the Dogs & Cats of Sosua & Surrounding Areas
AAAS (Asociación De Amigos Por Los Animales De Sosúa) also known as Friends of the Animals is seeking donations of used towels and blankets which can be used to keep the animals warm and comfortable after surgeries. Often the animals are sent home with the towel used for them, thus our supply is getting low. Paper towels and trashbags (medium/large) are other items that are used consistently and are always in demand.
AAAS is fortunate to have a number of veterinarians coming over the next three months to lend their services at spay/neuter clinics specifically for the street animals and those owned by low-income residents of the Sosua area. Additionally, World Vets, a non-government organization providing veterinary aid around the globe in collaboration with animal advocacy groups, will be joining AAAS for a 3-day clinic in Sosua Abajo in February.
If you have any items that you would like to donate to the cause, please drop them off at either the AAAS Thrift Store (next to Checkpoint Bar in Sosua) or at AAAS’ clinic (co-located with Judy’s Pet Lodge, next to Dr. Bob’s). You can also send an email to info@aaasosua.com if you cannot get to either location, but would like to donate. We will make arrangements with one of our volunteers for a pickup - within a reasonable distance.
During the World Vets clinic, our goal is to administer rabies vaccinations to every animal treated. At a cost of ~RD150 per shot, we will need nearly RD$22,500 (~US$585) to reach this goal. Therefore, monetary donations are needed and always welcome. Donations can be made at the AAAS Thrift Store or online via PayPal or by check (please visit the AAAS site at http://www.aaasosua.com/sosua_dogs_donation.html for all options). AAAS is a non-profit organization – your donations may be tax-deductible.
AAAS, its volunteers, and the dogs and cats of Sosua sincerely thank you for your support!

To the Anonymous AAAS Donator! People surprise me in different ways each day. A big thank you to the kind lady who gave a donation to Judy on the street. The donator came up to Judy and said, "Here is a donation for all the hard work that you and AAAS do. This money can go towards the spay and neuter that WORLD VETS is doing at the end of Feb." This made Judy's days!! Thank you so much to this kind secret donator!! If you are on facebook stay tuned for how your money is put to work!!

Can you help prepare AAAS for World Vets?? Check out the write up attached to the photo. Visitors travelling overseas please note some airlines offer a baggage allowance for humanitarian donations. I know Westjet does (50 lbs at no charge) it is best to call westjet so there is a note on your account. I can also do up a letter from AAAS so you can show your airline where the donations are going to make you travels easy. Contact me from questions. Thanks in advance!
