| Dear Friend: | ||
| We founded RASPA because we are concerned about very | ||
| precarious condition of treatment to animals in Russia. Our main | ||
| objective is to work with animal protection groups and profes- | ||
| sionals in the United States and by adopting their experience, | ||
| help Russia to change the present situation and conditions for | ||
| animals. | ||
| RASPA has established relationships with the Fund for Animals, | ||
| the Humane Society of the United States, the Animal Legal | ||
| Defense Fund and other animal protection groups, and by stu- | ||
| dying their work with animals, we are developing humane programs | ||
| which will will address the current needs of animals in Russia. | ||
| Russia is experiencing tremendous changes- the end of the Cold | ||
| War, a new market with free economy but not, just positive | ||
| and promising future, the present conditions, unfortunately, | ||
| are not working for the benefit of animals. | ||
| The situation with animals in Russia is so difficult and events are | ||
| developing so fast that most Russian animal protection groups | ||
| cannot cover even a small persentage of the existing problems | ||
| and in general suffer themselves. Besides the poor finacial | ||
| situation of these groups, most of them also need education in animal | ||
| protection issues and management. | ||
| Hopefully, once you are up to date on the situation, you might | ||
| be willing to join our group and contribute to our onging efforts. | ||
| Having understood the negative pressure of political and economic | ||
| circumstances, we are trying to bring changes for the new society, | ||
| which is still emerging, and we belive that the new Russian | ||
| generation must stand for humanity. Thanks you for your support | ||
| to make the world a more compassionate place for all living | ||
| creatures. | ||
