Mumbai Girl Invited 1200 Stray Dogs To Her Birthday Party

Something amazing happened in Mumbai last week. A 12 year old girl in Mumbai decided to celebrate her birthday with stray dogs.

1200 stray dogs were fed

The girl and her family contacted Animals Matter To Me(AMTM), a Mumbai-based animal-welfare NGO to arrange for the event. The little girl told her parents that she wouldn’t want to have a big party with her friends only, she wants to do something for the animals.

“The little girl is from a Gujarati family, and she did not want to spend money on lavish cake-cutting and on inviting friends and rather spend on feeding stray dogs in streets of Mumbai,” says Ganesh Nayak, the founder of the NGO – AMTM.

The best part is that the family wants to stay anonymous. They do not care about publicity. The NGO AMTM, helped bring together around 1100 stray dogs in the area around Marve and Aqsa for this little girl’s birthday party. The event was posted on Animals Matter to Me Facebook page. Around 800 confirmation came for the event along with 263 volunteers showed up to help.

A group of volunteers, animal lovers and bloggers came forward to help the NGO prepare food for 1200 stray dogs. The feast was served to approximately 1240 dogs. All the dogs were fed, fluffed and adequately pampered. This was a 12 year old girl’s dream come true moment – Celebrating her birthday with her furry loved ones.

“Her goal was to enrich every Mumbaikar’s mind to be humane and sympathetic towards all living things – be it a stray dog or a pigeon. So, on this birthday, she was feeling out-of-this-world as she had done something very special for these speechless souls,” said Ganesh.
