How you can help by donating....
 
Our Mission Statement
The American European Greyhound Alliance, Inc. is a non-profit corporation dedicated solely to the welfare of Greyhounds in the United States and abroad. The American-European Greyhound Alliance, Inc. accomplishes its mission through active and on-going monitoring of existing and proposed racing venues, liaising with racing industry and adoption groups, providing an effective source of collection and dissemination of accurate information, and education of the public as to the suitability of the Greyhound as an adopted companion animal. AEGA, Inc. will maintain and rehabilitate several Greyhounds at a time in the United States and Europe. These will be dogs with special needs, i.e. broken legs, medical problems, etc. The goal is to get them ready for adoption.
 
Our I.R.S. non-profit identification number is 04-3490964 and your contribution is tax-deductible.

Monetary donations are always needed and welcomed.
 
Paypal Donations........
 
You can also easily donate to AEGA by using your credit card at Paypal.com and sending your donation to: donations@ameurogreyhoundalliance.org or by clicking on the "VISA/MC DONATE" link below. Please note if you would like your donation directed to a specific group or country. Otherwise donations will be used for the dogs in greatest need.
 

 

Other donations.....

In addition to monetary donations, items donated directly for the comfort and safety of the Greyhounds in need in Europe are especially appreciated. The shelters and adoption centers that care for the Greyhounds can always use more supplies for the hounds. These do not need to be new. Please consider donating your Greyhound's older coat or collar if you buy him a new one. Some of the items that they can use are:
  • safety collars and leashes
  • first aid supplies
  • canine medicines
  • dog coats
Heavy items, like dog food, usually don't make sense to send over. In that case, purchasing food from a website that ships to the shelters overseas or just donating cash would make more sense. Please call Louise at 508-435-5969 or email us if you have any questions about the suitability of an item you wish to donate.
 
Other non-Greyhound related items can also be donated and auctioned on Ebay to help raise funds.
 
 
Other Groups collecting items for overseas Greyhounds, Lurchers and Galgos....
 
While The American-European Greyhound Alliance sends monetary donations and supplies to several sanctuaries and shelters in various parts of the world, there are also other groups that collect items too.
 
Greyhounds as Companions collects supplies such as collars and muzzles and coats and send them to shelters in Spain. Contact Pat for more information.

Coats Needed for Spanish Greyhounds.....
 
Everyone,
 
In large part due to international pressure, there has been some amazing headway made into the appalling conditions at Spain's last remaining track, Meridiana, in Barcelona. Two kennels have outfitted their crates with carpeting, where previously greyhounds laid on bare floor through all seasons.
 
Even more exciting, some of the greyhound owners have agreed to put donated coats on their greyhounds (this offer had been declined in the past - too much work). We feel that this is a foot in the door to try to get coats on all 700 Meridiana greyhounds.

Barcelona in the north of Spain is mighty chilly this time of year, and there is no heat or cooling in the kennels. So, you guessed it! A coat drive is on to try to get 700 coats to send to Meridiana. Please spread the word!! Check your greyhounds' closets and send all castoffs to me at:

Thanks in advance from the U.S, Spain, and friends of greyhounds in the U.K., Holland, and Belgium who have been a driving force to help the Spanish hounds.
 
Suzanne Stack, DVM
