Mission Rabies is an international NGO headquartered in the UK with offices in the USA, India and Thailand. Despite being eliminated from many countries, rabies still takes a devastating toll on the world’s most marginalized and vulnerable. Existing models of rabies prevention remain inappropriate for implementation in most countries that remain rabies endemic, because they lie at the bottom of the UN HDR rankings. Since 2013, Mission Rabies has been implementing vaccination and education programs where the need is greatest, collecting evidence and sharing lessons to make global elimination a reality. The goal of Mission Rabies is to eliminate dog-mediated human deaths caused by rabies by 2030 through mega vaccination drives and educating communities at risk on the disease.

Our Story: Our daughter Hannah was born with Cystic Fibrosis, a genetic life-threatening disease. Our family’s and friends mission in life has been to make a difference by raising awareness through volunteering and fundraising for Cystic Fibrosis. Our lives drastically changed on July 22nd, 2012 when our only other child, our son, SPC Brenden N. Salazar-Nelson was killed in the line of duty in Afghanistan, decorated with the Bronze Star and Purple Heart. I created Angel’s Life in 2003, I chose this name because it is the symbol of peace and salvation. Now this name means that more than ever. Together with my friends and family, we create soy-based candles and sell them to help draw awareness for Cystic Fibrosis.
