Hope-TKF Animal Welfare Foundation
Hope-TKF Animal Welfare operates a community-focused animal welfare initiative designed to rescue, treat, rehabilitate, and protect vulnerable street animals in Bangladesh. The project addresses urgent animal suffering through emergency response, veterinary care, rehabilitation, and community awareness programs.
The initiative is implemented in collaboration with PAW Foundation Bangladesh, enabling coordinated rescue operations, medical treatment, and long-term rehabilitation support.
