Dear friends, supporters, and compassionate souls,

I never imagined I would have to write a message like this—but the reality we are facing right now cannot be ignored.

This is no longer just about improving a shelter.

It is about survival.

Right now, our piglets are suffering. Due to the ongoing rainy season, their shelter is no longer safe. Water floods into their space, the floor remains constantly wet, and the environment has become cold, unhealthy, and dangerous. These conditions put their fragile lives at serious risk.

But beyond the shelter, we are now facing an even more urgent crisis:

We are running out of food.

At this moment, I am the only one providing for them—and I can no longer keep up alone. The little we had is nearly gone. These piglets depend entirely on us, and without immediate support, they may not have enough to eat.

We are currently caring for six piglets in a space that is too small and unsafe. The overcrowding adds stress and prevents us from helping other animals in desperate need—but right now, our focus is keeping these six alive.

This situation is critical and requires immediate, lifesaving action.

Our goal remains to raise $1,000–$1,500 USD, but right now:

• A portion will go toward urgent food supplies
• And the rest toward making the shelter safe and dry enough for survival

How your support will help right now:

• $5 – Provides essential food for the piglets for a day
• $15 – Helps feed them and provide basic care
• $30 – Supports both food and emergency shelter improvements
• Any amount – Helps keep them alive during this critical time

Every single dollar will go directly toward their survival—food, warmth, and protection from the rain.

This is more than a renovation.

This is a lifeline in a moment of crisis.

I cannot do this alone. I am asking, from the bottom of my heart, for your generous support during this incredibly difficult time. The urgency is real—and it is greater than it may seem.

If you are unable to donate, please share this message. That alone could help save a life.

🙏🏾 Please stand with us now.

Together, we can protect these innocent lives, give them a chance to survive, and turn this moment of crisis into hope.

With deep gratitude,
