About AASRA

AASRA was founded in 2019 by Gowri Vandana, a passionate short story writer and dedicated animal activist, with a vision to create a team of compassionate philanthropists committed to making a difference. 

Agglomeration aims to combine and strengthen individual knowledge, skills, and experiences. This unified effort is intended to focus and efficiently channel resources toward achieving meaningful and purpose-driven goals. To begin with, an experimental project was to study the impact of urbanization on stray animals.

Our launch took an unexpected turn when the COVID-19 pandemic hit. The streets were emptied, and food sources for stray animals vanished as restaurants and food courts closed down. Survival became a daily struggle for countless animals. Recognizing the urgency, we launched an emergency feeding program during the lockdown, ensuring that over 2,500 animals received food every day.

This initiative not only helped feed the animals but also opened our eyes to their other pressing needs—medical care for the injured and sick, and shelter for the terminally ill, paralyzed, and elderly animals. With limited resources, we expanded our efforts to address these challenges. We organized vaccination drives, collaborated with private hospitals to treat injured animals, and partnered with government and private organizations to provide ambulance services and support Animal Birth Control (ABC) programs.

As we gained experience, it became clear that more permanent solutions were needed. We established our own shelter, which now houses over 90 dogs, offering care for animals with special needs. This shelter provides not just temporary relief but a lasting solution for animals who need extended care and support.

Our journey doesn’t stop here. With every step, we are learning and growing. We are now expanding our focus to address the broader ecological impact of urbanization on both flora and fauna, as well as the human-animal conflict that arises in urban environments. Our comprehensive approach aims to restore balance—not just in cities, but also in surrounding rural areas, open lands, and forests—where human activity has a bad impact on the ecosystem.
