Nossa Equipa

Temos muita sorte de ter um grupo incrível de pessoas em nosso conselho na Humane Society of Morocco!

The Humane Society of Morocco is powered by a diverse and dedicated team of individuals from around the world — all united by one mission: to create a more compassionate future for Morocco’s animals. Together, we combine expertise, empathy, and action to drive lasting change.

O que o inspirou a fundar a Humane Society of Morocco (HSM)?

Em 2000, como cidadão preocupado, organizei o que se tornou a Humane Society of Morocco, para defender os animais de companhia, os agrícolas e os animais selvagens. A missão da organização cresceu rapidamente para incluir a prevenção da crueldade contra os animais e o cuidado de animais vadios.

Nossos esforços de bem-estar visavam tão bem os animais selvagens ou de trabalho quanto os cães ou gatos de estimação. Antigamente, o bem-estar animal em Marrocos ainda era extremamente básico. Coube a nós, como primeiros membros, aumentar a consciência pública sobre o cuidado adequado, a alimentação e o tratamento humano dos animais. Esta visão dos primeiros pioneiros continua a orientar os nossos esforços hoje. O caminho é longo e cada passo é apenas o começo. Sem pausas, apenas dores de cabeça.

Em 2012, mudei-me para Marrocos e desde então resgatei centenas de animais. Para atender à crescente necessidade, estamos considerando a construção de um santuário animal.

O que motiva você?

O mundo não será destruído por quem pratica o mal, mas por quem o vigia sem fazer nada. Não posso apoiar a crueldade contra os animais e cada vez que penso que há um animal sofrendo e ninguém está ajudando esta pobre alma, isso me enche de energia para agir. Luto para introduzir uma lei de bem-estar animal em Marrocos e para implementar padrões elevados de bem-estar animal, tal como nos países ocidentais. Ter uma base jurídica nos capacitará para combater a crueldade e nos ajudará a mudar a situação.

Para você, como será o futuro do HSM?

Adoraria que a nossa instituição de caridade se expandisse e se tornasse 100 % autossuficiente com mais pessoas a juntarem-se para nos ajudar a ajudar todos os animais que precisam.

O que o trouxe ao HSM?

During my travels in Morocco, I was deeply moved by the number of stray animals and by the efforts of those trying to help them. I began volunteering with local rescue groups, which led me to learn about the Humane Society of Morocco. The organization’s mission to create long-term, compassionate solutions for animals immediately resonated with me, and I knew I wanted to be part of that movement.

Joining the HSM has been an incredibly meaningful journey. I’ve had the chance to work alongside passionate, dedicated people who share the same goal — giving every animal a chance at safety and love. Each new project brings fresh challenges and new hope for the animals we rescue. Being able to contribute to real, visible change motivates me to continue growing within this amazing organization.

O que motiva você?

Seeing animals who once suffered now living happy, secure lives gives me strength every day. The HSM’s vision for a more humane Morocco inspires me to do more — to connect with others, spread awareness, and help create a country where compassion for animals becomes the norm.

Position: Foster Manager / Animal Care Supervisor | Nationality: Canadian

O que o trouxe ao HSM?

After moving from Canada to Morocco in 2018, I wanted to continue my work in animal welfare. I had already spent about five years volunteering with another organization, where I discovered how meaningful and fulfilling it is to help animals in need. Once in Morocco, I connected with the Humane Society of Morocco and was immediately inspired by their dedication and professionalism. I joined as a volunteer and knew right away that I wanted to be part of their growing mission.

Conte-nos sobre sua experiência!

Becoming part of the HSM family has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. The organization’s commitment to rescuing and rehabilitating animals is truly inspiring. I started as an Animal Care Associate and later transitioned into my current role as Foster Manager. Some of my favorite memories include rescuing eight puppies early on and caring for countless dogs and cats through our foster program. Each animal that passes through our care has a unique story, and helping them heal and find loving homes brings me immense joy.

O que motiva você?

What drives me every day is the bond that forms between humans and animals. Knowing that I can play a small role in helping families find their new best friend — and watching our rescued animals start a new chapter — is incredibly fulfilling. The HSM’s mission reminds me that compassion truly changes lives, both human and animal.

Mia

Position: Community Engagement Manager / Volunteer Coordinator | Nationality: Spanish

O que o trouxe ao HSM?

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been passionate about helping those who can’t speak for themselves — especially animals. During a trip to Morocco, I met Ali, the founder of the Humane Society of Morocco, and was deeply inspired by his energy, transparency, and tireless work to protect animals. Seeing firsthand the impact of the organization’s efforts, I knew I wanted to get involved and help expand that mission.

Conte-nos sobre sua experiência!

It’s incredibly heartwarming to see how dedicated everyone at the Humane Society of Morocco is to saving lives and improving animal welfare. From my first volunteer experience, I was amazed by the compassion and teamwork within the organization. I quickly became a regular volunteer and, shortly after, joined the board to contribute more directly. Working with such a passionate team has strengthened my belief in the power of community and collective action.

O que motiva você?

What motivates me most is seeing how small acts of kindness can change an animal’s life forever. Every rescue, every adoption, every moment of care reminds me why this work matters. Being part of a team that comes together purely out of love for animals is both humbling and inspiring — it drives me to continue raising awareness, engaging volunteers, and building a stronger, more compassionate community.

Cargo: Diretor de Operações | Nacionalidade: Americana

O que o trouxe ao HSM?

I’ve always loved Morocco, and when I came here, I wanted to give back to the community in a meaningful way. It didn’t take long for me to notice the large number of stray dogs and cats across the country — many of them thin, injured, or frightened. Their living conditions were heartbreaking: malnutrition, parasites, open wounds from accidents or abuse, and no one to care for them. At first, the scale of the problem felt overwhelming. But I knew I couldn’t just look away. I wanted to find real, sustainable solutions to improve their lives — and that’s what led me to join the Humane Society of Morocco.

Conte-nos sobre sua experiência!

Volunteering and working with the HSM has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. It has given me a deeper understanding of compassion and empathy toward all living beings. Every day, I’m inspired by the team’s dedication to rescuing and rehabilitating Morocco’s injured and abandoned animals. This journey has also helped me grow personally and professionally — learning more about animal welfare, leadership, and community engagement. Most of all, I’m grateful for the opportunity to be part of such a passionate and supportive group of people who share the same vision.

O que motiva você?

I’m driven by the belief that we can make lasting change through education and community involvement. By raising awareness and building compassionate programs, we can shape a future where animals are treated with the respect and kindness they deserve. Morocco has the potential to become a model for humane progress — and that’s what motivates me every single day.

Position: Business Manager / Director of Operations | Nationality: British

O que o trouxe ao HSM?

I’ve always loved animals, but I realized there was still so much more I could learn about animal welfare and how to make a lasting impact. The Humane Society of Morocco felt like the perfect place to combine that passion with purpose — an opportunity to contribute to a cause I care deeply about while connecting with a team of dedicated and inspiring individuals. With my background in business and nonprofit management, I wanted to help strengthen the organization’s structure and long-term strategy. Joining the HSM allowed me to use my skills to help shape a sustainable future for the animals and the communities that care for them.

Conte-nos sobre sua experiência!

It’s been a wonderful and eye-opening experience so far. I genuinely feel that the work we do makes a difference — not just for the animals, but for the people who learn from and engage with our mission. The gratitude of the animals we rescue and the commitment of the team are constant sources of motivation. Everyone is welcoming, supportive, and driven by compassion, which makes every day at the HSM fulfilling.

O que motiva você?

I’m passionate about building bridges between compassion and effective organization. I believe the Humane Society of Morocco can become more than a charity — a true center for education, innovation, and community involvement. I’m inspired by the idea of helping people and animals thrive together and motivated to use my 15 years of business experience to help the HSM grow sustainably and expand its positive impact across the country.
