have not lived today until you have done something for someone who can never
repay you.”

Friendicoes
began in 1979 in a tiny room with a curtain for a fourth wall, no electricity
or water. Within a week they had 27 dogs and 12 cats in residence. Today, the
city shelter is triple its original size and they have a country sanctuary to
house animals who need lifetime care while also running 4 spay / neuter clinics
to help control the stray dog population in Delhi and Gurgaon. There are ambulances
on call for emergencies, a hospital for strays in Delhi, a well-equipped clinic
/path lab for pets and a mobile equine clinic for working horses and donkeys. They
also look after and find homes for abandoned and rescued animals.
All
of this adds up to a ton of work to help out the animals that we often forget
we share this city with and these guys can use all the help we can give them.
Along with fundraising events, you can check out their website (http://www.friendicoes.org/ or their facebook page https://www.facebook.com/friendicoesindia )
and volunteer, foster, adopt or sponsor an animal. Also helpful would be
fundraising activities or donation drives (for old newspapers, furniture,
mattresses, wheat and dal) to help this incredible cause. Just because your
schedule or lifestyle doesn’t allow you to keep a pet doesn’t mean you can’t
help make a four legged furry out there really happy.
Happiness
like the best food is usually just that simple. This super simple strawberry
salad, is an explosion of happy tastes, sweet, salt, tart and peppery.
