About us

Our vision is a Zambia where working donkeys are free from suffering, treated with compassion, and truly valued by the people who rely on them. ​Working donkeys in rural Zambia often provide a lifeline for their owners who use them for farming and for transportation of goods to market. It is a harsh life for many of these animals, with poverty and lack of knowledge about donkey care often resulting in suffering through neglect and injury. ​We aim to improve the lives of working donkeys and support their owners in a practical way by: - educating people about how to care for their animals; a healthy, happy donkey will be a worthwhile long term investment. - providing training to make harnesses and modify carts & ploughs, ensuring they are appropriate for equine use and the job they need to do. - rescuing and rehabilitating animals in need of short or long term special care. ​
