📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
Gerakan Kerelawanan Internasional ( GREAT ) or International Voluntary Service Movement is a non-government organization, that organizes international voluntary service in Indonesia. It was established in Semarang on 22nd of August 2015. It is currently based in Salatiga city of Central Java, Indonesia.
It consists of long-term dedicated volunteers who believe that this movement, it allows all youth without exceptions and discrimination to access education, experience, etc; by growing as the agents of change in their respective lives. We are highly committed to spread the spirit of international voluntary service with a strong determination and hard work to aim our vision and mission.
💼 What the programme involves
Some people just ignore the existence of stray cats in their neighborhood or even see stray cats as pests. They live in the traditional market, housing area, and also the streets. Often, we find kittens being dumped inside a box on the street and in the traditional markets. People just don't want to be bothered by newborn kittens and think that dumping the kittens in the traditional market will solve the problem. In fact, almost all kittens die instead of surviving. It is not different from slowly killing them.
This project focuses on two main activities. Raising awareness of local people against animal abuse, spreading the message to start doing good things for stray animals around us. Supporting the cat lover community by helping them to maintain the shelter, street feeding, and fundraising.
By joining this project, volunteers will also learn how to pet a cat properly and have a chance to practice Indonesian Traditional Cultural Arts.
