About SPANA
SPANA was established in 1923 and is one of the longest serving international animal welfare charities.
Through a network of 19 animal hospitals and 21 mobile clinics, SPANA provides free veterinary treatment to around 380,000 animals each year in some of the poorest communities across Africa and the Middle East.
Without the support and generosity of animal-lovers like you, many working animals would continue to suffer from the effects of poverty and ignorance. SPANA's education programme teaches owners and schoolchildren - the future generation of owners - the best way to care for their animals.
As well as providing long-term support in Morocco, Mali, Mauritania, Tunisia, Ethiopia, Jordan, Syria and Algeria, SPANA dispenses emergency relief to animals affected by wars and natural disasters.

About this site
SPANA gifts is an online catalogue where the presents you buy help to make life better for working animals in some of the world's poorest countries.
You'll find a fantastic range of traditional gifts and cards for every occasion. From Christmas cards, trolley coin key rings to durable plastic bags, they are not only useful but also help to spread the word about SPANA's work.
Our Happy Hooves alternative gifts (availabe from the 1st October 2008) are perfect for the animal-lovers in your life. With each one you buy, you'll receive a unique gift pack - including a donkey gift card and a bookmark - to pass on to them. And the best thing is, we'll use your gift to purchase vital medicines and equipment needed for our veterinary and education activities across countries in Africa and the Middle East.
Whichever gifts you choose to buy, you'll be helping SPANA ease the pain and suffering of thousands of working animals.
