The Lucy Irvine Foundation Europe (LIFE) is a non-profit organization founded by author Lucy Irvine, dedicated to alleviating the suffering of animals—particularly dogs, cats, and horses—in Bulgaria. Operating in rural areas and Roma communities, LIFE engages in rescue operations, provides medical care, and conducts educational outreach to improve animal welfare standards. Their initiatives include spay/neuter campaigns, vaccination drives, and efforts to enforce animal protection laws.
Volunteering with LIFE offers individuals the opportunity to contribute to various tasks such as administering medical treatments, caring for rescued animals, and assisting with community outreach programs. Volunteers may also support daily operations and, if experienced, help with horse training and rehabilitation. Accommodation options range from basic on-site facilities to nearby rentals in Sliven, with transportation considerations due to limited public transit.
To learn more or express interest in volunteering, you can contact Lucy Irvine directly via the foundation’s website or email.
