Nueva Vida is a nonprofit organization dedicated to animal adoption. Its founders could not remain indifferent to the situation of thousands of animals in pounds across our country.
They began by publicizing these animals' situation in order to find someone who would want to adopt them.
Later, they embarked on another project: at a group member's chalet, they managed to gather several dogs from a pound whose animals were going to be put down. That is where Nueva Vida's journey can be said to have begun.
Over time, after years of struggling with the limitations faced by those who devote all their time and resources to helping others, Nueva Vida managed to create its own shelter, with facilities that accommodate more than 50 dogs.
These are currently their objectives:
⋅ They publicize the animals they have taken in to find adopters for them, while also helping other animal protection organizations like Nueva Vida carry out the same task.
⋅ They transport dogs or cats from pounds in other cities to Madrid to place them in foster homes, whose essential help allows them to give the animals a dignified and welcoming life until they are finally adopted. This also frees up space in shelters for other more disadvantaged animals that have been abandoned and/or mistreated.
⋅ On an exceptional basis, Nueva Vida pays for boarding when it is not possible to find a foster home or there is no physical space in its own facilities, although it does so as a last resort due to the association's limited income.
The financial contributions received by the organization are therefore used entirely for:
1.- Pay the fees for animals taken from the pound, which cannot leave without being vaccinated, dewormed, and microchipped.
2.- Pay for transportation when it is outside Madrid.
3.- Additional veterinary expenses for those who arrive sick or injured as a result of physical and/or psychological abuse.
4.- Pay the upkeep costs of foster homes that cannot afford them due to their particular circumstances, or, as a last resort, pay for boarding.
5.- Improve the facilities, infrastructure, and maintenance of the Nueva Vida shelter, to make the lives of its residents even more dignified while they find a family and to be able to accommodate even more animals.
