有關籌募善款興建「文婆婆狗場」之撮要

流離失所毛小孩的心聲 ：「想要一個可以為我遮風擋雨的避風港，是遙不可及的願望嗎？」

毛孩界對狗場的需求殷切，而政府的支援配套非常非常貧乏，令很多民間自發組成的狗場面臨租金、醫療費用緊缺等困難。

文婆婆已達70歲高齡，又有長期病患，但過去2O年仍不辭勞苦地獨自打理狗場，及幫助附近浪浪絶育（TNR),目前仍然為60隻狗提供一個安身之所，讓他們得到溫飽和擋雨之所。

奈何，文婆婆和一眾毛小孩正面臨「迫遷」的命運。

在幾經轉折和努力下，終於覓得一塊「爛地」和一間日久失修的空置小石屋, 可作為興建新狗場之用。

本會（香港動物基金 Hong Kong Paws Foundation Ltd，以下簡稱為 HK Paws) 在資源緊絀的情況下，也一直為文婆婆的狗場提供支援協助。

然而，興建一個狗場是一件艱辛和要投入龐大資源的項目。

有見及此，HK Paws 在今年6/30日於Facebook專頁和眾籌平台（Crowdfunding) 中公佈有關「籌募善款興建文婆婆狗場」的事宜，籌募善款目標為$700,000。

感謝各界踴躍捐款，第一期工程已於7月份順利展開，亦漸見雛形，而後續還有很多工程要持續進行。

鑑於近期持續的酷熱天氣 ，為避免毛小孩們因此而中暑及令狗舍有較佳的散熱降溫效果，所以，決定多花$40,000來購買天花加設隔熱建材。

因此，在工程成本增加的情況下，迫不得已地將籌募善款目標變更為$740,000。

截至8/30日，所籌得的善款約為$500,000。主要來自幾筆大額捐款。

這與目標善款仍約有$240,000的差距。

因捐款數目一直停滯不前。為興建狗場工程9月份能否如期完成增添變數。

最壞的情況是，興建狗場工程因為資金不足而被迫停工，場內60位小朋友將無家可歸。
在此，懇請大家慷慨捐款支持興建「文婆婆狗場」，你們的點滴捐助或積極分享，定能為場內60多位毛小孩提供一個安全的避風港灣。

最後，代文婆婆及場內60多小朋友位向名位說聲：「感謝！愛您們呀！」

Grandma Man's Animal Shelter Fundraiser

As a recap, many animal charities in Hong Kong are running on very tight budget as there is virtually no support from the Government. The shortage of land supply, skyrocketing rent, lack of medical funds are just among the issues we face everyday.

Grandma Man is already in her 70s and suffers from long term medical conditions. These have never stopped her from taking care of the furkids by providing them with shelter, food and TNR in the last 20 odd years. However, her humble wish of providing for the furkids is now facing the largest crisis. She and the 60 furkids under her care are forced out of their current premise. After much struggles and turns of events, Grandma Man finally managed to secure a new location although it was literally just a piece of wasteland.

HK Paws Foundation (HK Paws), as an independent animal charity, has been supporting Grandma Man with resources and manpower for the past years. As such, HK Paws has launched a fundraiser for the relocation and construction of the new shelter on Jun 30.

As one can imagine, this is a project of large scale. HKPaws has exhausted means with launching the fundraiser on Facebook and crowdfunding site on SimplyGiving towards the fundraising target of HK$700,000.

For many it might be the cost of their second cars, but for the furkids,

It is their lifeline.

Thanks to all our generous donors, the construction work was started in July and things are falling into place. With the best interest of the furkids in mind, HKPaws has decided to incur an additional cost of HK$40,000 for installing insulation panels on the roof. As a result, the project cost has surged to HK$740,000. As of Aug 30, the tally stands at roughly HK$500,000 with the help of a few large lump sum donations including those from HKPaws’ former adopters. We are currently HK$240,000 short and the fund flows has stalled in the past few weeks, putting the last phase of construction work under challenge. If we do not reach the goal in the near future, the works might have to be halted and the furkids might end up homeless. This is the outcome we do not want, and this is why we are giving this campaign another big push. Every dollar counts. As always, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts, and speaking for those who can’t speak up we thank you with all our fluff and love.

We will be processing the receipts and posting breakdown of funds in the near future, but as you know HKPaws operates 100% by volunteers, we will strive to get to them as soon as we can.
