OUR MISSION
Our mission is to provide a better life for animals in need by ensuring they have a safe, healthy and loving home. We strive to support and empower pet owners, educate the community on responsible pet ownership and provide high-quality care and shelter to animals in need. Our ultimate goal is to create a world where every animal has a loving family that cherishes them and treats them with the care and respect they deserve
WHAT WE DO
Our purpose is to make sure all animals have a loving home that will make them feel safe, valued and loved. We do this through the following services.

EDUCATE
Educating township and rural community pet owners to better care for their pets, and assist with the medical needs of the animals.

RESCUE & REHABILITATE
Rescuing and rehabilitating unwanted/homeless animals and ensuring they receive any needed vet care, including vaccinations and sterilisation.

REHOME
Rehoming animals to their new families and forever homes after the potential family completed and passed the adoption screening process.
ADOPT & FOSTER
We are a foster-based organisation and have no shelter.
That means we need volunteers to care for any unwanted animals while we find a suitable home for them.

DONATE & SUPPORT
Supporting LEAPS through donations or attending events is a meaningful way to contribute to the organisation's important work and help make a positive impact in the lives of the animals we are dedicated to help. Donations are 100% tax deductible

DONATIONSAs an organization, we rely solely on the generosity of our supporters to carry out our mission. We do not receive any financial support from the South African government, either at the local or central level. Therefore, every single donation we receive, regardless of its size, is crucial to our ability to make a positive impact in the communities we serve. Whether it's a one-time donation or a recurring contribution, each gift helps us to provide essential services and support to those in need. We are deeply grateful to all of our donors for their kindness and generosity, and we remain committed to using their contributions to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those we serve.

LAMBERTS BAY FARMER'S MARKET & ALPHEN CRAFT MARKETWe have a stand and adoption days at the Farmers Market at Malkoppan, South of Lamberts Bay, on the last Saturday of every month. We are also at the Alphen Craft Market every last Sunday of the month from October to May. LEAPS volunteers are on hand to provide information about the adoption process, and to answer any questions potential adopters may have. This initiative not only helps animals find homes, but it also creates awareness about the importance of animal welfare in the community.
