Thank you
Your unwavering support in 2025 helped to bring more than 1.5 million working horses, donkeys and mules closer to the better life they deserve.
A special thank you from Chris
Our CEO, Chris Wainwright explains how your support has helped ease the suffering of animals carrying heavy loads.
If there was ever a year that reflected the breadth and reach of our work – and why your support is so vital to us – this was it.
Our supporters’ amazing response to our Pakistan Flood Appeal enabled us to deliver emergency relief to thousands of animals and entire communities in desperate need.
While we’ve also made more progress on an issue Brooke has been campaigning on for around 10 years: ending the barbaric donkey skin trade.
The really encouraging update is that a well-attended conference of African nations in Côte d’Ivoire agreed to adopt a new strategy to protect donkeys, which includes implementing the ban we achieved together in February 2024.
Your consistent support is so critical to making sure this happens because you give us the confidence and resources to continue the fight on behalf of the donkeys.
Another project we are working on right now is improving the hard lives of animals used in the Tanzania Gold Mines. The condition of most of these donkeys and the conditions they are working in is heartbreaking.
