Are you an animal lover? Would you like to get involved in helping the street animals of Dakar? Then the LPA is for you!
The Animal Rescue League, also known as the Ligue pour la Protection des Animaux (LPA), is a non-profit association that has been dedicated to the welfare of animals in Senegal since 2012. The LPA is led by volunteers and relies on private donations.
Our mission is to:
Vaccinate and sterilize street dogs and cats. Rabies vaccinations reduce the risk to humans and sterilizations decrease the number of street animals
Raise awareness and engage the population on issues relating to animal welfare
Provide care and assistance for injured street animals through local neighborhood groups
Find forever homes for animals that have been rescued and cannot be returned to the street
