It takes a lot to keep the animals fed, sheltered and healthy so your donation of any of the items below, whether new or used, can make a big difference in their lives. All items are for the well-being of the animals.

A convenient way for people to help us get the things we need is through Souq, an Amazon company in Cairo. You can have items delivered directly to the shelter and the animals greatly appreciate it. Our delivery address is:

134 Nile st
floor 9
apartment 2
agouza
