It's devastating to watch wildfires worsening throughout B.C. The fires are threatening multiple communities, with areas around Kelowna and Kamloops being hit hard. The BC SPCA Animal Protection team has been given the green light to go behind fire lines to rescue animals. We are also deploying staff and resources to affected areas, and accepting animals for emergency boarding.

Things are progressing quickly in the area and we need you to help keep everyone safe.

The BC SPCA Animal Helpline is ringing non-stop and we have already taken in more than 100 animals for emergency boarding.

Since the state of emergency was declared on August 18th, our teams have had boots on the ground, extending helping hands to over a hundred animals, each with their own unique story of survival and resilience. With your generous support we can continue to rescue and care for these animals while providing supplies and other assistance to affected families.

The situation in the Interior is still developing, and with your kind help we will continue to respond where we can to support our affected communities.

We don't know what lies ahead, but our teams are already mobilizing with your caring support by their side.

Thank you for being part of this compassionate community. At times like this we rely on kindness from people like you.

In the amazing & extraordinary event that donations exceed the immediate need for this emergency, funds will go to the next greatest need.
