World For All, animal care and adoption is an association of young likeminded animal lovers who work towards homing needy street animals and re-homing abandoned and abused pets. On the 17th of January 2010 World For All was formally inaugurated as an animal welfare NGO, raising funds to serve needy animals, helping them lead a better life!
From paralyzed kittens and dogs walking again, to puppies and dogs found in heartbreaking conditions and now living a healthy life thanks to the dedication and love of Founder Ruchi Nadkarni in partnership with Taronish Bulsara. They formed a team along with Priyanka Mathur and Shruti Shetty.
It is of common knowledge that an animal when looked after by a family receives individual attention and care, than if it was to be amongst forty others in a shelter that is supervised by one or two men. However animals are normally born in litters of 5 to 6 resulting in the number of animals inevitably exceeding the number of available foster homes.
“We often get calls past midnight about animals in distress and find it challenging to contact people at odd hours to home the animal.” says a concerned volunteer. WFA is looking out for a private foster home where we can nourish, medicate, de-worm, vaccinate and groom our animals before they are adopted, in turn hastening adoptions and making it convenient for potential adopters to pick or choose their pet under one roof!
With the active assistance of authorised animal care associations and vets who help in rescuing and treating injured animals, WFA does not settle for anything less than the best when it comes to homing our animals!
Philosophies the WFA stands by:-
Don’t Shop, ADOPT! By Adopting a puppy or kitten you are not only saving a life but also discouraging puppy mills and breeders by not buying animals from them. An animal is not a business commodity but a life by itself; also there are hoards of illegal breeders that ill-treat the animals a lot when they are breeding them. When the buying stops, so will the selling!
Foster a little baby. We are always open to more families joining our network of foster homes where puppies and kittens are fostered temporarily till they find a permanent home. Fosters even volunteer taking upon sick animals and helping out till the animal is healthy and in good shape again.
Donate As a non-profit organisation, donations support in the treatment of animals. Purchase of our merchandise calendars, T-shirts makes a huge difference as well. We welcome monthly donors who feel for our cause as much as we do.
Volunteer with us No help is too little for us; even an hour of help can help us a great deal. So join us in this cause. Sign up as a volunteer with us we encourage and invite pet lovers all over to help make this truly a – World For All!
What we do
Proposed homes are interviewed and made to fill an Adoption trust deed. Rigorous background research is done before handing over a pet and home visits are conducted thereafter to make sure the pet is being looked after.
We promote the adoption of our Indian breeds and around 90% of the animals we home are pariahs off the street.
Indian Dogs have better immunity, longer life spans, Better digestive systems, extremely affectionate and Easy to train. Plus an Indian breed is much stronger, low maintenance than a pure breed and just as loving as, perhaps more.
Achievements so Far
- We have been working with animals for 3 years. In this time we have managed of course with the help of many hands the adoption of 900 odd animals into loving homes 90% of which are Indian Breed dogs and cats.
- We home animals off the street, from shelters (such as IDA, Ahimsa and Mika) and also from abusive homes. We also conduct sterilization drives for animal birth control and aid in several rescue cases of victimized and wounded animals and birds.
- We have rescued and aided the treatment of over 500 animals and sterilized about 400 dogs and cats.
We are strictly against buying and selling of pets as we believe that one does not have the right to put a price tag on a life.
