Assisi Animal Sanctuary is Northern Ireland's largest independent animal welfare charity providing shelter for up to 200 companion animals - cats, dogs and rabbits.
Most of our animals are available for rehoming but some of them need extra care and attention through no fault of their own. They may have illnesses that we need to look after or they may have some issues arising from a poor start in their lives. You could sponsor one of these longer term residents from just £3 a month which will contribute towards their food, vaccinations and vet bills.
These amounts can be paid by a monthly standing order and any amount on a regular basis will be very much appreciated by our residents. If you are a tax payer we are able to reclaim 25p for every £1 you donate.
We do not receive any government funding, so by sponsoring one of our residents you are helping to save their lives.
When you decide to sponsor one of our animals, you will receive the Assisi Newsletter, five times a year. You will also receive regular updates from your new friend and a sponsorship pack, which includes a special photo of your new friend, a window sticker and a lapel badge.
Gift for a Friend

Hi there I volunteer to fundraise but I am interested in sponsorship. I met Freya at Delamont and if I did not have a busy home with 4 rescue dogs already I would have loved to rehome Freya. I understand she has some issues which make my family unsuitable, but would like to contribute towards her care. How do I go about this?
Sharon. Thank you for offering to sponsor Freya. She does have some issues and it is mainly around meeting new people. She will bark at anyone new who comes near her and her bark is her defence against new people coming too close to her. Once she gets to know people she is fine with them. She has several dog walkers who she knows and they walk her regularly and she has a very good dog walker/friend who walks her regularly and also takes her home some weekends. Unfortunately she cannot rehome Freya as she works long hours and travels. I have your email address and will email you a sponsorship form. If it doesn’t come through let me know and I will put one in the post to you.
Thank you, I will return the form asap. I would love to offer her a home but have two german shepherds who would make it difficult. I met Freya with Chris and was very taken with her, beautiful girl.
Hi,
I would like to sponsor one of your animal as a gift for someone for Christmas. Can you email me the necessary forms please. Am I too late to give it as a Xmas gift?
Emma
Emma. I will pass your request on to our Admin Team and they will email the form to you and can post the letter and photos etc next week.
Hi there, could you email me a sponsorship form please? Many thanks, A.
Amanda. Will email one to the separately.
I am interested in sponsoring an animal, can you please email me a form. I am especially interested in ferrets, do you rescue them? I have 3 already and don’t have room for anymore but would
love to help any that are in need.
Thanks.
Eleanor. We would love you to sponsor an Assisi animal but we do not keep ferrets. You will see the animals we have available for sponsorship if you click on the Sponsorship link on the grey lines going across the middle of the screen. I have forwarded your note to our admin team and they will email you a form.
