AEDA: Compassionate Care and Rescue for Santiago's Stray Animals

Our Mission and Expertise

AEDA is a dedicated non-profit foundation based at the University of Santiago, Chile (USACH), committed to rescuing and caring for stray animals, primarily dogs and cats, in the Santiago Metropolitan Region. With a team of passionate professionals and volunteers, we specialize in providing medical treatment, rehabilitation, and shelter to animals facing abandonment, illness, or neglect. Our expertise lies in veterinary care and animal welfare, ensuring that every rescued animal receives compassionate attention and the best chance at recovery.

Comprehensive Rescue and Rehabilitation Services

At AEDA, we offer a range of services that go beyond rescue. Our foundation conducts regular street patrols to identify animals in distress, provides emergency medical interventions, and supports long-term rehabilitation efforts. We ensure that each animal is nurtured back to health in a safe and caring environment. Additionally, we run awareness campaigns and community programs to promote responsible pet ownership and reduce animal abandonment in Santiago.

Finding Forever Homes and Community Impact

One of our unique strengths is our commitment to finding permanent, loving homes for every animal we rescue. Through well-organized adoption events and partnerships with local communities, we facilitate the placement of healthy and rehabilitated pets into families ready to provide lifelong care. AEDA also collaborates with local authorities and organizations to advocate for stronger animal protection laws, making a lasting impact on animal welfare in the region.
