About us
Our Engagement
AASRA works closely with government agencies (municipal bodies, the NDRF and veterinary councils) to secure permissions and coordinate rescue operations, partners with fellow NGOs and veterinary colleges for joint camps and training, and teams up with corporates through CSR initiatives to fund equipment, shelters and adoption drives. We maintain strong donor relations for ongoing grants and crowdfunding, recruit and train volunteers via digital platforms for rapid‐response missions, and engage media and local communities through outreach events, workshops and school visits to raise awareness, gather feedback and build grassroots support.
