The Foundation was established in December 2016 with a small donation of £1000 from Ms C Ledford. The objectives of the charity are as below:
-
To Promote humane behaviour towards animals for the public benefit by preventing and relieving suffering of abandoned and mistreated animals, in particular, but not exclusively by:
-
a) The provision of grants of financial assistance to further the charitable work of individuals and animal welfare organisations which provide appropriate care, protection, treatment and security for animals in need of care and attention by reason of sickness, maltreatment, poor circumstances or ill usage in such parts of the world as the trustees shall determine.
-
b) Educating the public in matters pertaining to animal welfare in general and the prevention of cruelty and suffering among animals.
The Board of Trustees must have at least three volunteer trustees. The maximum number of trustees is 12. Trustees are appointed for two year and terms may be renewed indefinitely.
Trustee meetings are conducted over the telephone via conference call and the main order of business is reviewing grant applications and new partnerships with other charities.
The trustees review each funding application to ensure they meet the main criteria:
-

-
Animal welfare education programmes in Romania
-
Programmes which support pet guardians
-
