Where your money goes

Transparency and accountability are central to everything we do.

As Ireland’s national animal welfare charity, we are committed to ensuring that every donation is used as effectively as possible to protect animals, prevent cruelty and create lasting change for animal welfare across Ireland.

Every euro donated helps us rescue animals from neglect and abuse, provide lifesaving veterinary treatment, investigate welfare concerns, support rehabilitation and rehoming programmes, and advocate for stronger protections for animals nationwide.

74C
of every €1 goes directly toward helping animals.

Your support funds animal rescue, veterinary care, rehabilitation, rehoming, education and animal welfare work across Ireland.


The remaining 26c is invested in fundraising and essential support services, ensuring we can continue to help more animals now and into the future.
