PAWS OF HOPE · ROHTAS, BIHAR

A home for healing. A second chance for every paw.

Help turn a prepared 12,000 sq. ft. site into a compassionate animal rescue, veterinary care and recovery centre. A place where an injured dog can be picked up safely, treated with dignity, and given time to heal.

A proposed project by Fulminare Social Help Foundation (India). Construction and expanded services depend on funding, qualified staff and required approvals.

WHY THIS MATTERS

An emergency should not end at the roadside.

For a hurt, sick or abandoned street dog, help is more than a vehicle. It requires a trained response, a veterinarian, a clean place to recover and someone who follows through.

Our aim is to connect those steps in one humane, accountable system, beginning in Rohtas and expanding carefully toward neighbouring districts.

Not simply a shelter. A bridge from emergency to recovery.

Rescue with care

Plan for safe pickup, triage and transport protocols rather than avoidable injury or distress.

Treatment with dignity

A proposed veterinary assessment room, first-aid supplies, referrals and supervised recovery.

Recovery with a plan

Individual records, appropriate return to original location, adoption or longer-term care where lawful and suitable.

WHAT EXISTS TODAY
Real place, proposed build-out

The land is prepared. Now help us build the care.

The project team reports that boundary work, land levelling, a borewell and an electricity connection are in place. The photograph shows the prepared site; utilities and land rights require documentary confirmation for CSR diligence.

Transparency note: This is not yet an operating 100-dog facility. Facility capacity, veterinary staffing and district service reach will be finalised through design and operating plans.
THE FACILITY WE PLAN TO BUILD

Designed around each animal's recovery.

Comfort is not decoration. The proposed shelter combines veterinary-led care with hygiene, separation, safety and changing-season protection.

25 modular kennel units

Separate or compatible-group accommodation with washable surfaces, safe partitions, ventilation and controlled movement.

Veterinary clinic & triage

Assessment area, first aid, medicine storage, examination equipment and referral coordination under registered veterinarians.

Isolation & calm recovery

Quarantine and observation areas planned to reduce cross-infection and allow appropriate post-treatment rest.

Heat, cold & monsoon care

Shaded roofs, airflow, cool water, raised dry bedding, winter warmth and safe drainage for Bihar's seasons.

Safe emergency pickup

Planned animal-appropriate transport and trained handling protocols, coordinated with veterinary help and available resources.

Clean water & care records

Hygiene, feeding and sanitation routines with treatment records, recovery reviews and responsible reporting.

HOW AN ANIMAL COULD MOVE THROUGH CARE

One compassionate journey. Five accountable steps.

This is the proposed operating pathway, not a claim of current rescue volumes or 24/7 availability.

01

Report

Concern received and assessed; urgency and location confirmed.

02

Respond

Trained pickup arranged, subject to safe handling and transport readiness.

03

Treat

Registered veterinarian assesses, treats or refers the animal.

04

Recover

Appropriate kennel, nutrition, observation and documented follow-up.

05

Return / Rehome

Lawful return to original location, adoption or suitable care depending on the animal.

CSR & FOUNDATION PARTNERSHIPS

Build something a donor can visit, examine and measure.

Paws of Hope can be structured as an animal-welfare CSR proposal with a phased construction plan, veterinary governance, safe occupancy standards, and measurable treatment and release records once services begin.

We welcome conversations about funding kennels, clinical fit-out, equipment, seasonal protection and the operating-readiness phase. Corporate CSR eligibility and recipient documentation must be confirmed for the specific funding arrangement.

ACCOUNTABILITY MATTERS

Trust should be supported by records, not promises.

Giving decisions deserve clear project status, accurate budgets, lawful operations and honest progress reporting.

India legal recipient

Fulminare Social Help Foundation, the Indian nonprofit named as the intended recipient on this page.

Documentation on request

Section 8 / 12AB / 80G / CSR-1 / FCRA records and CAF America validation information, subject to current verification.

Cross-border routes

International donors can explore Fulminare's official worldwide giving page; applicable recipient and tax rules differ.

Planned reporting

Work milestones, invoices, care records and periodic donor updates will be built into the project operating plan.

QUESTIONS DONORS ASK

Clear answers before you give.

We would rather explain what is ready, what is proposed and what still needs verification than overstate the project.

Ask us a question →
Is the shelter already operational?

No. The supplied site photograph shows prepared ground within a boundary. The team reports borewell and electricity connections. Kennels, clinic equipment, rescue operations and animal-care capacity described here are planned and require funding and formal readiness checks.

Will 25 kennels safely hold 100+ dogs?

The 100+ figure is a long-term ambition, not an approved simultaneous occupancy limit. Safe numbers depend on kennel dimensions, compatible grouping, isolation, exercise space, veterinary advice, staffing and animal-welfare requirements. An architect and registered veterinarian should approve the design before a final capacity is advertised.

What happens to a community dog after treatment?

The decision will follow veterinary assessment and applicable Indian animal-welfare rules. Suitable animals may be returned to their original location after recovery; adoption or additional care may be appropriate in other cases. The shelter will not promise unlawful relocation or unnecessary permanent confinement.

Can I claim an 80G tax deduction?

Eligible Indian donors may be able to claim a deduction subject to the organisation's valid registration, donation type and tax law. Request the current certificate and appropriate receipt. Cross-border donations do not automatically carry Indian or US tax benefits.

How can a company or foundation support this?

Email the foundation to request the Phase 1 proposal, site and design evidence, current registrations and detailed quotes. Project fit, Schedule VII relevance and all CSR/other legal requirements should be reviewed before an agreement is made.

Does the ₹25 lakh include years of operating costs?

No. It is the initial development estimate. Recurring veterinary staff, medicines, food, fuel, maintenance, training and four-district coverage require a separately costed and sustainably funded operating plan.
