Love For Forgotten (LFF) was founded in February 2017 in Bangalore, India to help stray animals. It all started from a deep sense of empathy to other animals. The sights of fellow animals facing cruelty without a shelter to stay, getting crushed under the wheels while running for bread crumbs, sleeping under the rain in the coldest night always horrified us. We humans have almost made a hell for them out there. Creating a shelter was a dream.
With lot of efforts in finding like minded people finally we started this organisation. A shelter for those angels, a hope for forgotten ones, which we named it “Love For Forgotten”. Love For Forgotten, is an animal rehabilitation center established with an aim to help the forgotten souls which are in distress.
Our Mission
“Focusing on Animal Welfare and rehabilitation of injured animals.”
Our Vision
“Educate the importance of Animal and human co-existence.”
Founder
LFF was founded by Sukanya in February 2017. Born and brought up in Bangalore. She has been actively rescuing and helping injured animals for more than 10 years before founding LFF in 2017. She has rescued many homeless animals and improved their lives for better. She is a strong willed, compassionate individual whose dream was to build a shelter for strays and mission is to make Bangalore a safe and better place for animals.
Our Work
Our main objectives include working in collaboration with the animal welfare groups, rescuers and veterinarians to ensure the right treatment is provided to the injured and abandoned animals. Promoting awareness on animal welfare, animal care and health issues .There are so many neglected non-spayed animals on the streets and very few organizations actively working on getting this resolved, by conducting periodic ABC (animal birth control) camps, we aim to control the population also ensuring that the dogs have a better standard of life. The majority of our time is focused on distress calls from residents of Bangalore who find animals in need of help. In the last two years, we have saved and provided a better life for at least 500 dogs. LFF works towards the day where all animals are treated with kindness and respect. Love For Forgotten is a place where all the animals are looked after by the LFF staff and live a happy, carefree life which is filled with lots of love, fun and playtime.
