Legacy of LOVE and more!

Legacy of Love will be a luxury, coffee table book, filled with heartfelt words, stunning photos and beautiful art written by a variety of contributors. A Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign will be launched in June to raise the funds for this creative project. All profits from book sales will go to the Animal Charities featured in the book.
And guess what? Our very own founder Pen Farthing was asked to write a chapter to be included in Legacy of Love and so in our October newsletter we will feature details on how you can order your copy in time for Christmas!

Pen’s chapter will feature the story of ‘Gift’, a stray dog suffering terribly on the streets of Kabul but now safely at Nowzad!

You can read more on who has contributed at legacyoflovebook.org but we believe these two rather famous folk sell the book better than we can;

"The words and images in this fascinating book will transport us all into a world where kindness and beauty can embrace us all – if we open our eyes and our hearts." 

Virginia McKenna OBE,  Co-Founder, Born Free Foundation

My favourite animals to watch are sloths and sifakas. Who could fail to love a three toed sloth with its Lone Ranger mask, Harpo Marx grin and under active metabolism, and the sight of sifakas bounding and leaping sideways never ceases to make me slowly sink to the ground in silent merriment" 

Dame Maureen Lipman DBE, Actor

We are also super excited to announce that there is a tremendous collaboration coming between legendary animal welfare activist and top actor, Peter Egan and Nowzad; again more details in the next newsletter as it is top secret. Please don’t tell anyone…!
All we can say is we have been trying to make this happen for several years and finally it is!!

Whatever happens for the remainder of 2021 whether it be coronavirus or the Taliban; Nowzad is determined to be here for the animals of Afghanistan with no voice but yours.

Please donate and support us as you can – it will be the difference here at the Nowzad shelter.

Whilst Pen and Dan spent more hours on the road today, the rest of the Nowzad Ukraine team, David, Liuba, Dr Lachlan and Angela were hard at work organising and packing the van ready to head into Hostomel and Borodyanka Sunday morning. In addition to food supplies, there is also all the necessary equipment and supplies needed to set up a surgical clinic. The amount we need to take with us to set up a surgical clinic from nothing is massive! Everything from instruments to medications to means fo

As part of Operation Kramatorsk, our incredible partner, Ksenia, has been on the ground very recently - visiting the “hidden” feline heroes of this frontline city. Here - there is a quiet, tireless army of women refusing to leave their four-legged family members behind. Ksenia recently visited Natalia – a volunteer who shares her tidy, bright flat with 70 cats. Most of these cat rescues were brought to her by soldiers from the front lines because they know Natalia’s door is always open. Despite

It’s been a whirlwind of a week here in Ukraine, with Operation Kramatorsk. We’ve had some incredible wins, like getting five more dogs out of Kramatorsk and safely to Kyiv yesterday —including sweet little Peter, who is now receiving the veterinary care he needs! Of course, the frontlines always throw challenges our way. Our ambulance has unfortunately broken down again, which is a tough setback for our team. But the work doesn’t stop! We’re still pushing forward with our veterinary work (neu

Yesterday was one of the long ones, but it was worth every second! Just look at the dogs as they come out of the crates after the journey, into their new home for now. Dan and Pen have just finished a VERY tough 12-hour drive to get 5 more dogs out of the danger zone in Kramatorsk and safely into the shelter in Kyiv. #nowzad #kramatorsk #operationkramatorsk #ukrainerelief #nowzaddogscharity

Today has been a total whirlwind of emotion, action, and hope. In the Field with Pen 🎥 Check out the video from Pen, who’s currently en route with a truckload of animals - one dog (‘Peter’) going straight to the vets in Kyiv this evening to hopefully resolve some worrying health issues. We’re moving as fast as we can to get these dogs to safety in Kyiv and away from the immediate dangers of the conflict. Every mile brings them closer to a new, peaceful life.
