Despite Challenges, Devendra Continues To Fight For Voiceless And Innocent Animals In Chandrapur

Feel free to ask Campaigner for a new update on this Fundraiser.

Story of the changemaker


“If you ask around about me, most people will say that I am always angry and I have no manners. I don’t blame them - these people have only seen me shouting at others, trying to stop someone from harming an animal.  But everything I do is for them. My heart breaks when I see these voiceless beings suffer - I am ready to fight for them till my last breath,” - Devendra R*pelli, Founder, Pyaar Foundation. 


Devendra is a electronic engineer, who completed his MTech. and MBA and dropped his PhD halfway - but now he is rescuing animals 24/7. While many Indian parents might not like this man’s life choices, since 2018, he has been the sole reason, countless animals have got a new life. A passionate animal lover, Devendra started the Pyaar Foundation in 2018. He wants to save many more animals in need - this is his only mission now.


Nestled in the picturesque city and calm surroundings of Chandrapur, Devendra has built his own slice of paradise 


Devendra’s phone keeps ringing the entire - he keeps getting several rescue calls. And while he wants to save all these animals in need, he knows that’s not a practical solution. 


“When I started organisation, my aim was to build a safe home for all those abandoned and injured animals who have nowhere to go. Chandrapur is a small city - the people here don’t have the right kind of awareness, they still think treating a street dog makes no sense. To add to this, it is very difficult to get proper veterinary care and medical equipment so that we can take good care of these animals.”



But Devendra and his team are not ready to give in. They rescued injured cows from highways at 2 AM in the night, pulled out a puppy who had fallen into a well, and rushed an old and injured abandoned pet to the operation theatre - all this and more to give these innocent animals a second chance at life. 


Currently, they’re home to 600+ cats, dogs, cattle, handsome rabbits, and cows - each one of these animals has a painful past, one that Devendra is trying to wipe off with his constant love and care. 



Join hands with Devendra and help him save many more innocent lives 


“I quit every fortnight,” Devendra laughs. “The job is so demanding yet when someone brings an injured animal to our doors, all of us give our best to save them.”




Pyaar Foundation faces multiple challenges. With an increasing number of rescues and a variety of animals in their care, feeding them nutritious food becomes difficult. They are also in need of medicines, vaccines, and several other medical equipment. You can help Devendra and his team - every donation you make is sure to make a difference. 


About the NGO: Founded by an engineer-turned-MBA grad, Devendra R*pelli, the Pyaar Foundation is based out of Chandrapur. Since 2018, they have been working tirelessly to save countless abandoned and injured stray animals. Devendra quit his job, left his family, and dedicated himself to taking care of these voiceless beings. They work around the clock to ensure that no animal dies a painful death.
