Books for Vets Appeal

As you will no doubt be aware Romania Animal Aid is going to be organising bi-monthly aid missions to Romania. If you don't know about this, or want to learn more please check out Aid Missions under our Projects section via the website www.romaniaanimalaid.co.uk

What you may or may not be aware of is there are only a few veterinarians who are up to date with modern European veterinarian practices and techniques. This is not because they do not want to learn or update their skills but because it is very hard for them to obtain because of expense etc European literature to help them.

Considering it is them who are on the front line of treating the abused and abandoned animals in Romania, shouldn't we be doing something to help them? Something that will alleviate even more suffering?

Well now we can.....Romania Animal Aid are willing to distribute donated veterinarian books/manuals/journals to drop spots in Romania where the Veterinarians, students and qualified vets can for free choose from the selection on offer.

Please contact your own vet, your local veterinarian colleges and universities to see if they would be able to donate some books to this appeal. Anything that would help the animals is worth going that extra mile for...RAA will be going that few thousand miles extra to get these and other items to where they are needed. So if you can help, please let us know.

Because books are quite scarce and some people/vets/education establishments may not be able to donate. We have added a donate button so you can still help the vets by donating via Paypal. All monies that are donated via this button will be used to buy books, second hand if possible and distributed on our aid missions. A list of books bought, and of course donations recieved will be added below to this page.







For those of you who have been lucky enough to gather some books to donate, we can confirm the dates of the bi monthly aid missions (we are hoping the first to be at the end of September) We will arrange pick up points where you can bring the books and any other items you may be able to donate towards the aid missions straight into the RAA Van.We are hoping the end of September 2011 will be our first aid mission in the new RAA Van..
