In rural Tamil Nadu, cattle are not just animals — they are a farmer's savings account, insurance policy, and livelihood. Sengodu Foundation provides free veterinary care, vaccination drives, and stray animal support across Kallakurichi villages.
In rural Kallakurichi, a cow or a pair of bullocks is worth more to a small farmer than any bank account. Cattle provide milk income, draught power for farming, and are the first asset sold in a family crisis. When an animal falls ill and there is no affordable veterinary care within reach, an entire family's economic security is at risk. A sick cow that cannot be treated dies — and with it, the family's margin against poverty.
Tamil Nadu has over 15 million cattle and millions of farmer households dependent on them for survival. Yet rural veterinary services are severely understaffed — many villages have no access to a government vet within 20 kilometres. Meanwhile, stray dogs and cats in these same villages suffer from disease, injury, and hunger with no one to care for them.
Sengodu Foundation's Animal Welfare & Cattle Support Program brings veterinary camps directly to villages, organises mass vaccination drives, provides treatment for sick animals, rescues injured strays, and educates farmers on livestock management — protecting livelihoods and extending compassion to every animal in rural Tamil Nadu.
Every animal treated is a family's income protected. Numbers behind our mission.
From vaccination drives to stray rescue — every animal in our coverage villages receives care and compassion.
Mobile veterinary camps organised in villages, bringing qualified government and private veterinarians with diagnostic equipment, medicines, and treatment supplies directly to farmers who cannot travel to distant clinics.
Organised vaccination campaigns protecting cattle, goats, and sheep against the major preventable diseases that devastate rural herds — FMD, HS, BQ, PPR, and Brucellosis — protecting both animal health and farmer income.
Rescue, treatment, and sterilisation of stray dogs and cats in rural villages — reducing rabies risk, preventing overpopulation, and ensuring humane treatment of community animals through the Animal Birth Control (ABC) program.
Improving milk yield and cattle health for small dairy farmers through nutritional guidance, artificial insemination support, and milk quality improvement programs — directly increasing farm income.
Goat rearing is a primary livelihood for thousands of rural Tamil Nadu households, especially women SHG members. We support flock health, disease prevention, and breeding quality improvement for small rearers.
Knowledge is prevention. Farmer training workshops on disease identification, first aid for animals, nutrition management, and government livestock scheme access — empowering farmers to protect their animals proactively.
Village-level livestock census, disease prevalence mapping, and farmer consultations identify the most critical animal health needs before each camp or drive.
Qualified veterinarians provide free treatment, vaccination, deworming, and surgical care at camps. No animal is turned away. No farmer pays a rupee.
Farmer education workshops run parallel to vet camps — building long-term knowledge on disease prevention, nutrition, and government scheme access.
Post-treatment follow-up visits, livestock insurance linkage, and connections to government veterinary services ensuring sustained animal health beyond the camp day.
My cow had FMD and I was about to sell her for a loss because treatment was too expensive. The foundation's vet camp was in my village the next week. She was treated for free, recovered fully, and gave milk for three more years. That cow paid for my son's school fees.
I had 15 goats and PPR wiped out 8 of them in one month before I knew what was happening. After the foundation's vaccination camp, I haven't lost a single animal in two years. For a woman rearing goats on her own, this program is everything.
Our village had a stray dog that had bitten three children and was clearly sick. No one knew what to do. Sengodu Foundation's team came, treated the dog, vaccinated it for rabies, and sterilised it. The dog is healthy now and the children are safe. That's compassion in action.
