THE PURPOSE OF GLOBAL STRAYS IS TO RESCUE AND PROTECT ANIMALS, MAINLY STRAY DOGS AND CATS, FROM NEGLECT AND ABUSE, AND TO ASSIST PEOPLE IN CARING FOR THEIR ANIMALS. THE ORGANIZATION WILL OPERATE INTERNATIONALLY. WE ARE CURRENTLY WORKING IN CENTRAL AMERICA, AND SOUTH AMERICA. WE MEET WITH ANIMAL RESCUE ORGANIZATIONS IN THESE COUNTRIES AND WE SEE THE WORK THEY DO FIRST-HAND. WE THEN DECIDE WHO WE WILL BRING ON AS A PARTNER ORGANIZATION. BASED ON THE INDIVIDUAL NEEDS OF THE ORGANIZATION, WE WILL FUNDRAISE AND DISTRIBUTE GRANTS TO THESE ORGANIZATIONS. OTHER MONEYS SPENT WILL BE FOR ACTIVITIES STRICTLY RELATED TO OUR CHARITABLE PURPOSE. SOME EXAMPLES OF HOW THE GRANTS WILL BE USED ARE FOR LARGE-SCALE SPAY AND NEUTERING PROGRAMS TO HELP CONTROL THE OVER-POPULATION OF STRAY ANIMALS, CLINICS PROVIDING FREE VETERINARIAN CARE IN RURAL COMMUNITIES FOR FAMILIES WITH PETS, EDUCATIONAL INITIATIVES THAT HELP TEACH CHILDREN AND FAMILIES RESPONSIBLE PET OWNERSHIP, VACCINATION PROGRAMS FOR RESCUED ANIMA
