How we work

SOS Animal Help works as the right hand of animal welfare nonprofits.

We build sustainable, secure and transparent fundraising that both organizations and donors can rely on.

We centralize donations so that every project receives the resources it needs to keep going, with transparency and full accountability.

Our work

Local projects gain the stability and visibility they need to grow.

  • Accounting and legal structure

    We handle the accounting and the legal work that keeps each nonprofit compliant with Brazilian law.

  • Sustainable fundraising

    We create campaigns and communication strategies that raise each project's visibility and expand what it can raise.

  • The care they need

    We make sure veterinary treatment and every other kind of care the animals need is covered.

SOS Animal Help, step by step

Local projects gain a larger structure behind them.

  1. We understand

  2. We organize

    We put documents, processes and administrative routines in order so the nonprofit operates within the law.

  3. We strengthen

    We create ways to sustain and grow its capacity to raise funds and save more animals.

  4. We stay together

    We stay alongside the project, meeting all its needs so it can keep working for the long term.

Our mission

To expand animal protection capacity across Brazil.

We bring rescue and sheltering projects together into a structure that can offer organization, resources and continuity.

Our goal is to widen this network so more initiatives — and more animals — are reached.

Transparency

Accountability and transparency are part of how we are built.

SOS Animal Help is a formally registered organization and makes its records, documents and projects available for anyone to check.

Your contribution strengthens an entire animal protection network.

The funds keep the SOS Animal Help structure running, along with the projects that shelter, treat and protect hundreds of animals.
