ASPCA

We just wanted to give a shout out to the ASPCA which has been on the front lines for rescue and relocation of pets during these turbulent times.

The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals^® (ASPCA^®) was the first humane society to be established in North America and is, today, one of the largest in the world.

The organization was founded on the belief that animals are entitled to kind and respectful treatment at the hands of humans and must be protected under the law. Headquartered in New York City, the ASPCA maintains a strong local presence, and with programs that extend their anti-cruelty mission across the country, they are recognized as a national animal welfare organization. They are a privately funded 501(c)(3) not-for-profit corporation, and are proud to boast more than 2 million supporters across the country.

The ASPCA’s mission, as stated by founder Henry Bergh in 1866, is “to provide effective means for the prevention of cruelty to animals throughout the United States.”

This amazing organization offers a range of efforts --

Saving Lives

No matter the location or scale of the deployment, the ASPCA is prepared to take on animal cruelty cases when needed—from initial investigations to the final placement of rescued animals in homes.

 

Increase Adoption

The ASPCA takes every possible action to increase the probability of adoption for homeless animals across the country.

 

Keeping Them Safe

The ASPCA’s efforts to protect animals span from federal laws to local courts to community engagement. We’re helping to prevent harmful situations for animals and to take action when they occur.
