Jivdaya Charitable Trust

Jivdaya Charitable Trust runs three mobile clinic vans as part of its Animal Care on Wheels initiative, providing essential medical treatment, medication, and vaccinations to over 80,000 strays in Ahmedabad. These vans offer prompt care for injured and diseased animals, aiming to prevent suffering caused by accidents, cruelty, and diseases like rabies and anthrax. Equipped with skilled veterinarians and necessary medical instruments, these vans ensure quick and stress-free recovery for the strays, promoting a healthier environment for both animals and humans. The long-term goal is to create a city free from diseases like rabies, fostering harmonious coexistence between humans and animals in Ahmedabad.

Jivdaya Charitable Trust engages in avian rehabilitation, rescuing and treating thousands of birds annually, including over 100 species, some critically endangered like vultures. The initiative aims to upgrade rehabilitation facilities, train staff extensively, and educate rehabilitators nationwide. They address challenges such as habitat loss and threats during festivals like 'Uttarayan', where thousands of birds face injuries from kite strings. With a focus on rescuing, treating, and releasing distressed birds, the project strives to conserve endangered species and promote public awareness for bird conservation in Ahmedabad.

Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, Jivdaya Charitable Trust ensures the well-being of urban strays by feeding over 600 dogs daily across different city areas. Recognizing the dire situation where strays relied on human provisions now disrupted due to closures, the Trust stepped in to prevent countless strays from starving. By addressing the challenges of disrupted food sources and the inability of regular feeders to maintain social distancing, the initiative aims to safeguard these animals' lives. The long-term impact focuses on nurturing well-fed strays that contribute to harmonious coexistence, protecting territories, and fostering immunity against diseases, benefitting both animals and humans in the community.

Jivdaya Charitable Trust tends to street dogs facing injuries and diseases due to accidents, poor living conditions, and scavenging. Its 'Dog Kennel' provides shelter and treatment for up to 100 strays, funding surgeries, ongoing care, and balanced nutrition. Despite community unawareness and urbanization challenges leading to accidents and neglect, the Trust raises awareness and ensures comprehensive care. It aims for rapid health improvements, immediate attention to complications, faster healing, and prevention of disease spread, fostering harmonious human-canine coexistence.

Jivdaya Charitable Trust launched a project dedicated to rescuing and caring for abandoned stray cows in Gujarat. These cows, often abandoned when they can't produce milk or suffer injuries or illness, play a crucial role in human life and the environment. By emphasizing scientific rehabilitation, the project aims to educate urban and rural communities on the importance of these cows for sustainable agriculture, health, and the environment. Challenges arise from urbanization leading to the daily abandonment of cows, leaving them vulnerable to accidents and neglect. Jivdaya addresses this by improving the welfare of these unowned cows, offering medical care by experienced veterinarians to control diseases like Anthrax and Rabies. The long-term vision is to conserve these revered 'GOMATA' (Mother Cow) for their nourishing contributions and to motivate proper care, ultimately benefiting both mankind and the environment.
