Support Us

We are always desperate for funds at ADANA. we have some great support but it costs us around €14,000 per month to run the shelter and this allows us to help every dog we come in to contact with.

ADANA receives no funding from any governmental or local council organisations and relies entirely on donations and contributions from the public.

Our monthly outgoings consist of medical supplies, vet's fees, food, three salaried permanent full time members of staff...

We need a minimum income of 14,000 euros per month simply to continue to exist.

Of course, we are always striving to improve the facilities and welfare of the abandoned dogs we look after and so we are always fundraising.

The pandemic has meant that nearly all our usual fundraising events, such as the annual Dog Show and Christmas Fair have been cancelled for the past 18 months.

In order to move forward, ADANA has been granted a 75 year lease of the land and premises of our current site at Los Pedregales, on the condition that we gain a Zoological License to operate. In order to be granted this license, the following improvements are required:

• Remove and replace the existing sewage system with a specified depuradora (sewage treatment tanks), reconstruct the ground work and connect to the existing sewage pipework with improvements.

  Total Cost: 65,000.00 euros

• Construct and install a new roof extension over eight pens on the South side, covering the rear patios, install a new drainage system for eight pens patios direct to the new sewage depuradora, interlock with the main building and install rain guttering throughout.

  Total Cost 85,000.00 euros

• Install a new fire alarm system, provide fire plan and signs, complete with emergency lighting, provide outside hours lighting linked to the standby solar power system, improve the security camera system and improve the security fencing throughout. Apply for Zoological Licence.
