Youth Organisation in Defence of Animals (YODA) is a Mumbai-based NGO committed to improving the lives of stray and abandoned animals through rescue, medical care, rehabilitation, and adoption. Our work spans emergency rescues, OPD treatments, sterilizations, vaccinations, and community awareness programs, all aimed at creating a compassionate and sustainable ecosystem for animals. Our Malad OPD Shelter operates 24/7, serving as a lifeline for animals in distress.

ALL OUR SERVICES ARE PROVIDED FREE OF COST FOR STRAY ANIMALS, ensuring that no animal suffers due to lack of funds or resources. Through the support of donors, volunteers, and corporate CSR partners, we have treated thousands of animals, facilitated successful adoptions, and spread awareness on responsible pet care. Every contribution directly impacts an animal’s life, helping us continue our mission of giving them the second chance they deserve.

Thanks to the compassion and continued support of our donors and CSR partners, we were able to achieve this together in 2023–2024:
* 25,000+ Vaccinations
* 4,000+ Sterilizations
* 1,000+ Animal Rescues
* 40,000+ OPD Treatments
* 140+ Successful Adoptions

Each number is a life saved. Every life is a second chance. And every second chance was made possible by our growing YODA family.
