About

Our Story

Founded in 2025 and based in Bhilai, Chhattisgarh, Praani Protection Foundation is a registered trust dedicated to the welfare and rights of animals. But our journey began much earlier.

Between 2021–2024, we worked as an informal volunteer collective:

  • Rescuing 200+ distressed animals

  • Vaccinating cows and dogs against life-threatening diseases

  • Fitting reflective collars to keep street animals safe on roads

  • Hand-raising abandoned calves and puppies

  • Facilitating adoptions into caring homes

  • Coordinating sterilisation of community animals

Our volunteers contributed their efforts in Bangalore, Delhi, Pune, among others, to help local organisations and rescuers in their efforts. This consistent, grassroots work inspired us to formally register in 2025, giving us the legal standing to collaborate with authorities, access support, and expand our mission.

 

Mission

To create a compassionate, cruelty-free world where all animals - from community dogs and cows to farmed and wild beings - are protected, respected, and free from exploitation. We work through rescue, rehabilitation, policy advocacy, and the promotion of vegan philosophy, bridging compassion with law to ensure justice for every life.
