On behalf of the Europe Disaster Response program implemented by the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW) I would like to sincerely thank you for our cooperation in delivering emergency support for animals suffering from the Russian war in Ukraine. We highly value efforts of the Element of Life and U-Heats teams in implementing the Save pets of Ukraine Project and impactful help delivered to thousands of pets and their guardians during May 2022 - June 2024 with the financial aid from IFAW.

U-Hearts is a fantastic cause - and we felt compelled to help. One of the ways we supported was by gathering donations of products at the UK’s biggest pet trade show. We were so proud to be able to ship over £10,000-worth of food, treats, toys, bedding and much more. The U Hearts team were wonderful to work with.

We are proud that U-Hearts is part of the VAFO family and together we can do amazing things for abandoned animals in Ukraine. What began as a contribution of several bags of pet food has blossomed into an extensive collaboration. Together we successfully launched the Warm Hearts & Paws Christmas initiative and we look forward to other joint projects that will improve the lives of abandoned animals.

U-Hearts are our fantastic and reliable partners, who are always willing to support charitable animal sterilization and vet care in Ukraine. They go out of their way to fundraise and provide medication and supplies for animals in need. With the help we have managed to treat many thousands of animals and we look forward to an ongoing relationship with them.

At the onset of the full-scale invasion in Ukraine, we supported the U-Hearts Foundation and pets affected by the war in Ukraine by providing them with pet food. Additionally, we were able to organize a fantastic campaign to collect warm blankets and beds during the winter period at Pets Corner stores, enabling us to donate around 1000 warm items and blankets to U-Hearts! We are happy to have such a reliable partner as U-Hearts and to help the pets of Ukraine!

U-Hearts' focus on protecting beings that can do little to help themselves is a powerful mission of hope and kindness in a world that often feels like it lacks both.
