Project Description
ROLDA is a non-profit organization (CUI: 18416340) located in one of the poorest regions of Romania (south-east), Galati county, where we provide short and long term humane solutions to the homeless dogs population, exposed to abuses, hunger and often, a cruel death..
We transform rescued dogs (sometimes very scared or shy) into safe pets for the right people-companions.
With us, a dog stops subsisting and starts living!
Short term impact
Rescue every dog in need of our assistance;
Provide medical care to rescued dogs;
Built and manage modern, clean sheltering facilities (1st shelter and 2nd shelter);
Provide emergency food aid to poor pets;
Sponsor the sterilization and identification (microchipping) of poor pets from villages to reduce the abandon rate;
Re-home sociable dogs in Romania and abroad, in verified (pre-selected) adoptive families/individuals, based on adoption contract agreement.
ROLDA’ Smaller Shelter was nominated for three times in the past 10 years the Best Dog shelter from Romania.
Long term impact
The rehabilitation program addressed to abused, wild, very scared or shy dogs that need time and patience to start trusting people again. For these types of dogs, we created the Rescue Centre.
The REX Clinic built on the premises of the Rescue Centre is the first-ever built charitable, social veterinary clinic from south-east of Romania, one of the poorest region of the country.
Project: To create the Green Adoption Centre to generate a responsible attitude from local people toward the environment but also to increase local adoptions.
To encourage the international volunteers from all over the World to visit, to help our staff and the hundreds of dogs from our care!
Educate the local community to respect the animal’s lives and their rights, to get actively involved to solve the street dogs’ massive problem 1Life is ROLDA’s latest Outreach Campaign.
