The animal protection program in Lisbon, Portugal, is designed for those passionate about animal welfare. Volunteers taking part in this sustainable tourism initiative have the opportunity to work with a team that shares these same values.
Our “Family” projects are suitable for children from the age of 4. Our advisors will provide personalized recommendations based on your child’s age, the destination, and the type of mission.
The main mission is to support local associations that rescue lost or abandoned cats and dogs. Animal shelters play a crucial role in Lisbon due to the high number of abandoned pets. These shelters are often at full capacity and rely on volunteers to provide time, love, and care to ensure the health and well-being of these animals, giving them the best chances of being adopted.
This sustainable tourism program in Portugal focuses on rescuing stray cats and dogs in a local garden and providing them with a safe environment. The goal is for them to be happy, healthy, and ultimately adopted by a loving family.
The shelters also aim to raise awareness about pet abandonment through events that volunteers can participate in.
