'They are Alice': the legacy of the veterinarian graduate who died at a concert and left more than 20 dogs for her family

Alice Moraes' legacy as a veterinary graduate lives on through the care of over 20 dogs left by her family following her tragic death at a concert.

Alice Moraes, a 27-year-old veterinary graduate, tragically passed away in 2022 during a concert in Porto Alegre, Brazil. Her untimely death raised public concerns about the alleged negligence and delayed medical attention surrounding the event. In her memory, her family is devoted to caring for the 24 dogs she rescued and aspired to help, embodying her vision of a compassionate and proactive approach towards animal welfare.

From the outset of her veterinary studies in 2016, Alice envisioned establishing a rescue service to address the plight of abandoned animals, akin to a 'SAMU for pets.' Her goal was not merely to provide shelter for these animals, but to create an inclusive organization that ensured each rescue was spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and adequately prepared for adoption. This ambition resonated deeply with her family, who now channel their grief into fulfilling her dream.

The Moraes family is transforming their home into a haven for these dogs, striving to maintain Alice’s legacy of compassion and responsibility towards animal care. With the ongoing work of fostering, vaccinating, and preparing these pets for adoption, they hope to create a lasting impact on their community. The family's commitment to Alice's mission highlights the importance of animal welfare and the profound connection between humans and their pets, inspiring others to consider the legacy they leave behind.
