Reloved For MSPCA: Maltese Sanctuary Organising Rare Event For Abandoned Animals
Malta’s SPCA (MSPCA) is organising its first event after many many years – all for Malta’s abandoned animals and all the work that goes towards saving them and giving them a new life.
This year, the sanctuary’s focus is to raise funds for refurbishment of the back part of the shelter – and they need your help.
“This year our focus is on the refurbishment of the back part of our shelter. The plan here is to increase the amount of shelter space, the removal of the asbestos roofing and landscaping the area in order to create a new and friendly agility area to facilitate the rehabilitation of our intakes and support our ongoing adoption process,” MSPCA told Lovin Malta.
“This area will also serve as an educational facility in order to hold workshops focusing on animal welfare related topics such as training and care for our animals.”
“Our aim is to facilitate animal welfare by targeting the source of the problem in order to safeguard future lives and prevent further cruelty to our animals.”
“The refurbishment on the extension of our kennels towards the back of our shelter has been completed. Thanks to this new extension we have increased our intakes by 15 dogs per month. Up to date we have taken in 100 animals this year, 88 of which have been dogs and rehomed 85 locally.”
“We are now focusing on the refurbishment of the remainder of this area, which will form part of our agility area and educational facility to improve our operation.”
“In light of this initiative, we are organising our very own event called Reloved where we will be talking about the importance of sustainability as part of sustainability September.”
The event will be happening at the Maria Rosa Winery Estate on 14th September – an evening of food, free flowing wine, and animal awareness.
“In order to sustain ourselves, MSPCA relies heavily on two revenue streams to keep us going. Firstly its chain of second-hand shops, which helps bring in a steady flow of funds, whilst helping to contribute to a more sustainable way of living.
“Secondly, the charity relies on memberships both from members of the public and from corporations,” it said.
The fundraising event and awareness campaign will be opening up the floor at the winery to artists in the form of dance by Alison White, comedy by Pia Zammit, fashion and audiovisuals, voiced by Trudy Kerr, in their mission to talk to the public about the importance of being sustainable and protecting what matters.
