Animal-kind international supports animal welfare organizations in poor countries, primarily in africa, secondarily in latin america/caribbean, and in armenia. we raise money for them and raise visibility of their work. we track their use of aki funds and provide this information to our supporters. we support our partner organizations through ongoing disbursements ensuring that they have enough funding to carry on their programs. to broaden our support, we sponsor an annual africa-based animal welfare organization grant program, which funds grant projects based on the submission of a successful proposal. we also provide technical and administrative assistance to our partners and grantees, and to other target organizations to help strengthen african animal welfare organizations.
