On 24th February, Russia invaded Ukraine following days of gathering it's forces along Ukraine's border. IFAW is preparing to rush emergency aid to two local animal shelters in Ukraine that urgently need help:

- Shelter Pif is located in Donetsk, Eastern Ukraine. Evacuation is not an option for shelter staff and over 800 dogs in their care. 

- The Holivka Shelter, located in Gorlovka Eastern Ukraine. Staff are not allowed to cook hot food for their dogs incase fire draws unneccessary attention to the shelter. They desperately need to buy dry food for the 300 dogs in their care. 

Donations could help IFAW rush emergency aid to provide food, veterinary supplies and wages for daily care staff to both shelters in Ukraine as well as help protect other animals around the world

Forest Vets will be running fundraising activities around our three practices to help raise money for this cause.
