About Township Animal Rescue

Since 2004, Township Animal Rescue has been a beacon of hope for neglected dogs and cats in South Africa’s most vulnerable communities. Founded by Jillian and Vanessa Cunningham, our non‐profit organization is driven by a deep commitment to transforming lives and restoring dignity to animals in need.

Working tirelessly in disadvantaged townships like Lwandle and Nomzamo, we rescue animals suffering from malnutrition, injuries, and the hardships of neglect. Once rescued, these animals receive essential treatments—including vaccinations, de-worming, de-fleaing, and specially tailored diets—to help them regain their health and spirit.

Our work doesn’t stop at rescue. We also run dedicated sterilization programs to control overpopulation and reduce future suffering, ensuring that every intervention contributes to a sustainable model of animal care. Every rescued animal is given a chance to thrive, thanks to the unwavering support of our volunteers and the generosity of our donors.

Township Animal Rescue is more than just an organization—it’s a community united by compassion and a shared vision of a world where every animal receives the love and care they deserve. Join us in our mission to create lasting change and a brighter future for vulnerable animals across South Africa.
