We help animals… and you can too
Friends of Animal Charities is a registered charity founded originally by a group of friends – all with a passion for helping animals – to assist local animal welfare organizations on the Kapiti Coast and beyond.
Opening shop in Paraparaumu Beach in April 2014, FOAC has raised over $500,000 (as at April 2024) for local organisations like HUHA, Horowhenua SPCA, Feline Fix and other rescue groups in both the North & South Islands – Bay of Islands Animal Rescue, Saving Hope Foundation, Christchurch Bull Breed Rescue and Pet Refuge to name a few.
You can do your part to help the animals too – donations and volunteers are always welcome.
