Give Me A Paw has been on the frontlines rescuing animals trapped in areas under constant threat of bombing.

After just 14 months of fragile stability, Lebanon has once again become an active war zone. Heavy bombing is taking place across the country, and Israel has issued evacuation orders for large parts of Beirut and the entire south of Lebanon, an area of roughly 1,445 km², forcing hundreds of thousands of residents to flee with little warning.

In the chaos of displacement, thousands of animals have been left behind.

Pets locked inside empty homes.
Dogs chained outside with no one to return for them.
Animals trapped in pet shops and apartments.
Strays injured from bomb blasts, wandering through empty streets in search of food and water.

These innocent lives have no voice, but they have not been forgotten.

Since March 5, Give Me A Paw has been carrying out emergency rescue missions into war-affected areas to save animals trapped in evacuated towns and neighborhoods.

Our team enters bombed buildings and deserted streets to search for animals left behind. Every mission is dangerous, but we continue because these animals would otherwise have no chance of survival.

Your donation will help us continue:
• Rescuing animals trapped in homes and evacuated buildings
• Reuniting rescued pets with displaced families whenever possible
• Supporting displaced families to take care of their pets, with boarding costs, food, and medicine
• Treating animals injured by bomb blasts and debris
• Unchaining dogs and rescuing animals abandoned outside
• Distributing food and water in evacuated neighborhoods now turned into ghost towns

Our shelter is now beyond capacity, and the cost of rescue missions, veterinary care, and boarding is increasing every day. But we refuse to stop while animals are still trapped and suffering.

We urgently need your help to continue this work. Time is critical.

Many animals are locked inside homes without food or water and could be killed at any moment by ongoing bombardment.

With your support, we can continue to reach them before it’s too late.

Please donate today to help us save the animals of Lebanon. Every contribution makes a difference.
