Mission

United Animal Rescue is composed of a group of animal volunteers who are passionate about saving animals in Brazil. Our rescue was started by a group of animal lovers from the United States of America and Brazil who believe that animals and humans can co-exist peacefully without hurting one another. Our group is very active, saving an average of 12 animals per day. Last year, we donated roughly 50,000 pounds of pet food, distributed thousands of vaccines and paid for over 1,000 castrations. In spring 2021, we built an animal sanctuary in the city of Salvador-Bahia, Brazil which can house 250+ debilitated, injured and healthy animals. In this sanctuary, we provide youth animal education, medical care, adoption services, and if needed, a permanent home. Unfortunately, animal cruelty and abuse are very common in Brazil, but we are here to do everything possible to stop it.
