According to reports, the contribution was made to help maintain the operations of the shelter, which provides care, food and medical assistance to abandoned and injured cattle. The donation is expected to help with the day-to-day running of the facility, especially at a time when many shelters are facing financial constraints.
A PTI report quoted Sonu Sood as saying, “Taking care of animals is as important as taking care of humans. They depend on us for safety and dignity.” He further stressed the need for collective responsibility to support such institutions that work quietly but continuously for animal welfare.
This is not the first time that Sonu has come forward to support social causes beyond the film industry. Over the years, he has been widely recognized for his contributions to health care assistance, education support, disaster relief and assistance to underprivileged communities across the country. His involvement in animal welfare initiatives adds another dimension to his ongoing philanthropic work.
The management of the cowshed reportedly expressed gratitude for the donation, noting that contributions of this scale help them continue to provide essential services, including medical treatment and rehabilitation for rescued animals.
