    • Mission

    Our mission is to reduce the suffering of stray and wild animals on Koh Phangan. Phangan Animal Care For Strays Foundation is a non-profit organization operating on the island of Koh Phangan in Thailand. We are an animal hospital that provides life-saving medical treatment, vaccinations, and sterilisations to stray and wild animals of Koh Phangan. We receive no government funding and rely entirely on donations and volunteers to provide these vital services to the animals of the island.
    About PACS

    • Volunteer

    If you're going to volunteer somewhere, it might as well be in paradise! It would be impossible for PACS to give its many patients adequate care without the help of volunteers. It doesn't matter whether you are a trained veterinarian, marketing professional, or just a dog lover - there are volunteer opportunities for everyone at PACS! We only ask that you are a friendly, happy person, with a love for animals and a dedication to help them. Learn here about the various ways you can contribute your time to help Koh Phangan's stray animals.
