A Perfect Fit Gift

In a rural part of southern Africa, donkeys Tency and Lin support their owner, Viktor, by transporting goods around their village. Their vital work helps Viktor provide for his family and send his children to school. Working under the hot sun, both donkeys developed painful wounds from old, makeshift head collars that rubbed badly against their sensitive skin. The constant friction prevented healing, worsening their condition. Viktor realised they needed help and visited SPANA’s partner mobile clinic. The vet team treated Tency and Lin’s wounds and fitted them each with a comfortable, new headcollar. This not only relieved their suffering, but also ensured their continued wellbeing and ability to support Viktor’s family.
