HART - Helderberg Animal Rescue Team is a dedicated organization based in South Africa, committed to the rescue, rehabilitation, and rehoming of stray, abandoned, and injured animals. They primarily focus on the Helderberg area, which includes towns and communities where animal welfare concerns are often urgent and under-resourced. The team responds to calls from concerned citizens, local authorities, and even hospitals, showing a proactive approach to tackling animal suffering firsthand. HART operates on a volunteer basis, relying on community support and donations to handle a wide variety of situations, from saving animals trapped in difficult environments to providing medical treatment and ongoing care. They also play a role in educating the community about responsible pet ownership and the importance of spaying and neutering to curb the local stray animal population. The impact of HART is evident in the number of animals they assist each year, which runs into the hundreds.
