What does Sanco do?
Help for animals, wherever the need is greatest
We collect money, food, supplies and medication and make sure everything reaches the place where it is needed most at that moment. That is how we help sick, injured and neglected animals, and the people and shelters caring for them.
Neutering and spaying
We send veterinarians into the field to curb the stray animal problem through neutering and spaying projects.
Food
We collect food, including specialised and veterinary diets. Dry cat food is always needed.
Supplies and medication
We collect supplies, medication and medical supplies. Medical products always go through our veterinarians.
Transport
We organise domestic and international transports, so that all help ends up in the right place.
Support for shelters
We support shelters and animal welfare organisations in Belgium and abroad. We help where others stop.
Support today, help tomorrow

Good to know
Frequently asked questions about donating
What happens to my donation?
Your gift buys food, medication and medical supplies for animals in need. It pays for medical costs such as treatments and life-saving surgery, funds neutering and spaying projects that tackle the stray animal problem, and covers transport so that supplies reach the places where they are needed most. All medical care is provided through licensed veterinarians.
How much of my donation actually reaches the cause?
We aim for 100%. Payment providers charge transaction fees on online payments: we lose almost 5% on every online gift, which is why you can choose to cover those fees yourself. A bank transfer to BE88 0019 3976 1641 costs us nothing.
Will I receive a tax certificate?
No. Sanco Foundation cannot issue Belgian tax certificates (fiscaal attest) at this time, so your gift is not tax-deductible. For every online gift you do receive a payment receipt by email.
Do you only help animals in Belgium?
No. Sanco makes no distinction between Belgium and abroad: we always look at where the need is greatest at that moment. We support shelters and animal welfare organisations in Belgium and abroad, including by transporting relief supplies and sending veterinarians into the field.
“Saving one animal will not change the world, but surely for that one animal, the world will change forever.”
