Carmena luidt de noodklok…
Carmena Serbanoiu uit Targu Jiu, Roemenië, roept om hulp. Als oprichtster van Asociatia Pro Animals zorgt ze in haar opvang voor meer dan 1.000 honden, waarvan 90% gered uit het lokale dodingsstation.
Maar de druk wordt ondraaglijk. De middelen raken op, en zonder steun dreigt haar opvang het niet langer vol te houden.

Money management
We have an ING bank account where all funds are received.
Only the treasurer has access to this bank account, and she reports to the other board members as well as to the tax authorities.
Selection of requests for aid projects is done by the Secretary, who writes a proposal for the other board members to approve. Only if all board members agree, the aid project will be published on the website as 'Monthly Aid Project'.
We help stray animals that are constantly struggling. Fortunately, there are no more stray animals in the Netherlands, but in many countries there are still hundreds of thousands of strays.
How we work:
- We only work with volunteers and have been doing so since 2009.
- We are a hundred percent transparent.
- Not only that, but we only have 2 to 3% general costs. (At many foundations, this is an average of 28%).
- No salaries, no expensive lease cars.
- No costs for expensive offices.
- We don't have millions in the bank that should be spent on helping strays, but they aren't. (as is the case with various foundations).
- Our foundation is located in the Netherlands and is one of the very few small-scale organisations that helps reliable animal helpers worldwide.
- You can decide for yourself for which project your donation will be used.
- Weekly publication of aid projects' donations received.
- Visible reports of how donations have been used.
- Official ANBI (tax office) quality recognition.
