Animal-Kind International Blog
Each AKI Blog post features an AKI Partner Organization, AKI Grant Recipient, or an individual or organization making a difference for animals in low income/resource-poor countries, where there is very little public support for animal welfare. In posts about our supported organizations, you'll also find details of how they use your donations to AKI.
