Paws for a Cause: Advocating for Shelter, Safety, and Support for Every Animal in

Need In some areas of dasmariñas.

Content of the advocacy:


- Advocacy Focus: In the streets of Dasmariñas, countless dogs and cats face
the daily struggle for survival. Without proper shelters, these animals are
vulnerable to accidents, abuse, and neglect. This advocacy aims to raise
awareness and provide solutions by seeking safe spaces for stray animals. And
without shelters, countless animals are left to fend for themselves in the streets,
where they are at constant risk of being mistreated or abused. Shelters provide a
crucial line of defense against cruelty, offering a safe space where animals can
heal both physically and emotionally.

Call to Action:
- Get Involved with Community Organizations: Visit Community Organization
providers to learn more about how you can help to them or how you can aid them
for this promotion. Explore ways you can support their efforts, whether through
donations, volunteering, or simply spreading awareness.
- Donate Essential Items: Every little bit counts! Shelters often need resources
such as food, medical supplies, bedding, toys, and cleaning products.
Community members can engage in outreach programs, volunteer at shelters, or
donate resources to meet immediate needs.
- Volunteer Your Time: By Volunteering your time and your self by joining and
participating on organization that helping stray animals and providing them
shelters. Volunteering is not just a chance to give back, it's an opportunity to be
part of a collective effort to end the suffering of stray animals in our community.
- Spread the Word: One of the easiest ways you can help is by educating others in
your community. Share information about local shelters, the plight of stray
animals, and ways people can contribute. Advocacy is about more than just
direct action; it’s about building a network of people who care and are willing to
take action.
Goal:
- To place small streetside shelters complete with roofs and blanketed floors as
well as being big enough for four all over the targeted area in sets of two, with
each set being at least 50(?) meters away from each other.
Objectives/Plan:
- 1. Get stray animals off the streets and provide them with safe, comfortable
spaces that are free from environmental dangers, abuse, and neglect.
- 2. Inform the community about the risks faced by stray animals living on the
streets, such as accidents, mistreatment, and poor health conditions.
- 3. Encourage people to get involved by donating resources, volunteering, or
supporting organizations that provide shelter and care for stray animals.
- 4. Promote kindness and responsibility in the community towards stray animals,
encouraging everyone to take action and help improve their lives.

Planning:
- 1. Work out the design, dimensions, and details of the shelters themselves.
- 2. Scout out places in targeted area with particularly high numbers of stray
animals.
- 3. Plan out the locations of shelters.
- 4. Canvas the costs of all necessary expenses.
- 5. Buy all necessary materials.
- 6. Build shelters.

Research the problem:


1. The number of stray animals in Dasmariñas, how many animals are on the
streets, and what are the main causes like abandonment, overpopulation, lack of
spaying/neutering?
2. Existing shelters and resources of how many shelters are available, and what
capacity do they have? Are they funded properly? What are their biggest
challenges?
3. Public awareness and attitudes, do people in the community know about the
stray animal problem? Are they willing to help or donate?
Evaluating the Loopholes:
Animal Abuse and Cruelty
- Despite efforts to raise awareness and provide shelter, some animals may
continue to suffer from abuse or neglect in certain areas.
- To solve this loophole we need to Raise Awareness About Animal Rights, Hold
workshops or awareness campaigns about animal cruelty, focusing on how
people can report abuse and what resources are available for victims of cruelty.

Insufficient Donation
- Despite the ideas of this advocacy ideas of how we can solve this matter if an
organization has a lack of resources, including funds, food, medical supplies, and
volunteers we will have a hard time to address this issue.
- Encourage people to donate specific items like food, blankets, and cleaning
supplies to solve this issue about lack of resources or insufficient donation. By
partnering with businesses for in-kind contributions (e.g., pet food brands) could
also help alleviate resource shortages.

Sustainability of Volunteer Efforts


- Volunteer engagement is often inconsistent. Some volunteers may lose interest
or not be able to commit long-term, and with a high turnover rate, it becomes
challenging for shelters to maintain a steady workforce.
- Provide clear guidance, training, and recognition for volunteers. Encourage long-
term relationships by offering meaningful roles like fostering, event organizing, or
animal care rather than one-time tasks.

Monitoring:

- Community members can engage in


- outreach programs, volunteer at
- shelters, or donate resources to meet
