The Protectora Animales Perros del Sol (PAPS) is a rescue shelter and foundation to support abandoned dogs in the Costa Cálida area of southern Spain.
Based in El Mirador near San Javier, PAPS provides a safe and caring environment for abandoned or unwanted dogs whilst endeavouring to find them loving, permanent homes.
Established in 2010, over the years PAPS have helped thousands of dogs get the decent quality of life they deserve, largely thanks to the continued generosity of volunteers and supporters who lend their time and money to this worthy cause.
PAPS doesn't receive any funding from the local council and so rely on donations from the public to keep going. If you are able to make a monetary donation, any amount – large or small – is appreciated. With registered charity fiscal number G54504907, you can be sure that your money is going to a legitimate good cause.
Donations can be paid to Caixa Bank IBAN ES98 2100 8241 1102 0008 5418, BIC/SWIFT code CAIXESBBXXX, with the beneficiary 'Perros del Sol'.
As it is a Spanish account in euros, any payment made in GBP from the UK should be made by PayPal (select the option friends and family) to the email address animalesperrosdelsol@hotmail.com.
If you can't afford to make a monetary donation but still want to help, you can feel free to contact them about the possibility of dropping off dog food or doggy treats, or to volunteer your time walking and looking after the dogs.
Better yet, if you want to make a dog's life better permanently, you can adopt one of the pups at PAPS and give it the home it deserves!
Any help is greatly appreciated.
