The goal of L.C.O is to raise the awareness of respecting stray animal. After series of rescue missions, L.C.O started to gain public recognition and receive supports (donation to animal ambulance/rescue vehicle) from generous organizations and individuals. In 2009, the L.C.O rescue vehicle was rewarded road rights by the government, and was the first vehicle dedicated to animal in Taiwan.
