PUERTO RICO RELIEF PROJECT

Communities that never recovered after the hurricanes were facing much more dire conditions as a result of the 6.4 magnitude earthquake. Within just 30 days of that event, Puerto Rico endured over 2,400 earthquakes and the aftershocks continued.

People were afraid to sleep in their houses, sleeping in their cars or on chairs on their lawns, and many were fleeing the island to the mainland and abandoning their animals.  There is a lack of clean drinking water, basic human hygiene supplies, food, and shelter. Animals additionally suffered from lack of these needs.

BACKGROUND

Since Hurricane Maria struck in September 2017, Global United Foundation (GUF) has been involved with the communities of Yauco and Guayanilla, in southern Puerto Rico. Our volunteers have been working and collaborating with partnering organizations who are rescuing dogs, fostering and providing transportation to the Northern states. Many of these animals were abandoned as a result of the catastrophe, which has exacerbated the urgent need for support. GUF has been paying for medical expenses and providing care for animals in foster or transit.

We continue to work on:

  • Improving human health by improving animal health
  • Helping domestic pets and providing them with care, food and medical attention
  • Community education on how to better care for their pets
  • Helping the stray animal population with a spay and neuter campaign
  • Saving stray dogs and relocating them to new loving families in the States

We continue to need your help for Puerto Rico!
