The Animal Welfare program is based in Northern Tanzania. It surveys ten villages in the district with the goal of enhancing the current animal welfare status. The survey aims to provide an empirical foundation and make strategic decisions involving the allocation of project resources and the design of various components.

The program was established to address the five freedoms of animals, of which most farmers in the area are not aware:
- from hunger and thirst
- from discomfort
- from pain, injury, and disease
- from fear and distress
- to express normal behavior

Community members in Tanzania do not have animals as pets, with all animals considered as food, business, or guarding. By volunteering in this project, you are in turn supporting a business and family.

Tasks you may be doing within the day can include treating wounds; training local staff; and carrying out vaccinations, autopsies, and checkups. You also have an amazing experience of working with Maasai tribes, wherein you treat their animals and provide care training.

Volunteers give a direct contribution of $100 to the center.
