Animal welfare charity launches art sale
Nonprofit organization Don't Eat Friends launched a charity art sale on Thursday in Beijing, in collaboration with artist Ji Yali, to raise funds and awareness for animal welfare.
The Chinese nonprofit
animal protection organization frequently hosts art events, including concerts and exhibitions, to promote its message of protecting animals. Ji Yali, an ambassador for the organization, has been actively involved in urban stray animal rescue efforts since 2009 and is known for her animal-inspired paintings. In 2022, she published an illustrated book titled Guesthouse No.11 and donated all royalties to animal protection organizations.
For this charity event, Ji contributed her paintings and related merchandise for sale. All proceeds will be donated to the charity organization to fund medical treatment and sterilization for stray dogs and cats. The initiative also aims to raise public awareness about stray animals and encourage more people to engage in animal welfare efforts.
