Dear Friend,
Philippines-flood6-250

I know firsthand the communities that were left devastated by Typhoon Haiyan. I have spent many years living in some of the most affected regions. The people in these communities are hard-working and almost totally dependent on animals for their livelihoods. For example, farmers would use Carabao (a form of water buffalo) to plough fields.

I am taken back by the mass destruction and knowing the islands so well, I can say with conviction, it is inevitable that the impact on animals will be great during this extraordinary time of need. So, I am writing to you for your help.

While the world rallies to support the victims of this disaster, WSPA is on the ground helping the forgotten victims - the animals. 
We are working with NGOs and governments to ensure that the humanitarian aid and the needs of animals are met in tandem to the millions of people affected in the Philippines. Thus far, our assessment reveals WSPA will provide emergency care to thousands of livestock and companion animals - that are currently wounded and at risk of starving to death.

Animals are an important part of the family in the Philippines and are vital to the survival of urban and rural communities. Without your urgent help, local families might lose the animals that they rely on for their livelihood and survival. By protecting animals suffering as a result of Super Typhoon Haiyan, you're also helping an entire society to recover and heal. 

There is an inextricable link between animals and human welfare. The shocking number of human casualties estimated makes us well aware that animals will desperately need our help. 

Join me and make an urgent donation today. Help save the suffering companion and farm animals of the Philippines.
