Introduction
If you have a deep affection for dogs, cats, and furry animals of all kinds, we invite you to join us in Korea and participate in our Animal Care Program. This program focuses on rescuing and providing care for animals that are not receiving fair treatment or are in danger due to various circumstances.
We collaborate with local animal shelters throughout Korea to extend a helping hand to stray animals, including cats and dogs. Your involvement will include tasks such as cleaning, feeding, and ensuring the overall well-being of these animals. By offering your care and attention, you will make a significant difference in their lives.
Moreover, our local group is dedicated to rescuing animals in need of assistance during natural disasters, as well as those that have suffered from violence and abuse. We also work towards improving the conditions for dogs that are kept in "dog farming" facilities, where they are often mistreated and eventually used as food ingredients.
By participating in the Animal Care Program, you will actively contribute to providing a better life for these vulnerable animals, promoting their welfare, and raising awareness about their plight. Your compassion and dedication will make a lasting impact on the lives of these creatures in need.
Come and join us in Korea, where your love for animals will be put into action, and together we can create a brighter future for them.
Daily Life
Welcome to our Healthcare Education project, where you can make a difference in the lives of local children through teaching valuable health and hygiene practices.
Your journey begins on Monday, where you'll attend a meeting with our Medical Officer to learn about the health issues facing the community and receive training on what's required of you. After the meeting, you'll have time to prepare for the day's activities before heading to a local school. There, you'll have the opportunity to organize engaging activities that will help the children learn easily. Once you've returned from the school, you'll have the chance to share your experiences and provide feedback.
During your participation in the Animal Care Program in Korea, your basecamp or guesthouse will be conveniently located in the heart of Seoul. This vibrant city is known for its thriving arts scene and bustling marketplace, offering a lively and exciting atmosphere. Despite the program's shelters being scattered throughout the city, your accommodation will be just a few hours away from the airport, ensuring easy access.
