The charity fund “Second Breath” makes sure that shelters have the right amount of bedding and that employees and volunteers have clothes in which they can work with animals. In winter it is especially important because animals have to live outside and people have to work.
Now we are collecting money so that the shelter “House of Kindness” in the Smolensk region will receive help in time. There are 250 animals there, and we need to give them 1000 kg of bedding, beds and consumable textiles for the winter. Let the animals and the people who take care of them spend the winter in warmth!
Textiles for insulation of cages and beds and changeable (working) clothes for volunteers are always needed in shelters. Thanks to this, sick animals are provided with clean sheets and beds, and those living outside do not suffer from frost.
All the work of the Second Breath Foundation is aimed at making sure that unwanted clothes continue to do good. We collect and sort things, give clothes in good condition to people in need, recycle what cannot be worn. Some of the collected items we send to animal shelters. In this way we relieve our employees and volunteers of the burden of searching and selecting things, save their energy and money, which is very much needed to take care of four-legged animals.
Money is needed to pay for the labor of the sorter who selects the items and collects the shipments, and also to pay for the logistics to the shelter, so that the items get to the animals and their people.
