Spread the love
Making a donation to a charity in the name of someone else is a
touching way to not only to give a gift to the happy couple, but
also give something back to the world.
The
Nowzad Dogs
charity was formed to do something positive
for the stray dogs, cats and other animals of Afghanistan who
have nobody to care for them. Donations help to support the
running costs of the Nowzad animal shelter, as well as enabling
them to run a programme that will limit the spread of rabies
among the canine population – a wonderful gift for the animal
lover.
