This is a new blog devoted to discussion and information on lobbying efforts by the HSUS, whose experience in this area is well recognized. Says Markarian, "When I ask local groups [if they] are involved in lobbying efforts to protect animals, I often hear the same response: 'But we’re a nonprofit charity and we’re not allowed to lobby!'" It’s a common misperception, but it’s not true. Charitable groups can and should advocate for public policy changes. Gary D. Bass, executive director of OMB Watch, says that there is a long tradition of charitable advocacy and civic participation in this country: “Nonprofit lobbyists have been involved in nearly every major public policy accomplishment in this country—from civil rights to environmental protection to health care,” he told the Washington Post. It is an area that more activists organizations should muster.

Founded in 1968, API's mission is to advocate for the protection of animals from cruelty and exploitation.
Every year, billions of animals suffer in fur farms and circus cages, in slaughterhouses and product testing labs. In our campaigns against such cruelties, API uses powerful tools including legislation, public education, litigation, and grassroots networking. We also work actively with media to spread the word about challenges facing animals.
API's primary campaign areas currently include animals used in entertainment, captive exotic animals, companion animals, compassionate consumerism, farmed animals, and wildlife protection.

ANIMALES
S.O.S.
(Bolivia) e-mail: bolivia@animalessos.org Animales
S.O.S. is the only animal
protection organization in
Bolivia affiliated with Humane
Society International and
the WSPA. Since 1995, Animales
S.O.S. has helped over a thousand animals a year while
operating on a minimal budget.The
organization's main focus
has been to humanely reduce the stray dog population,
estimated at over 80,000
in La Paz alone. Animales
S.O.S. is currently in the process of building a "true" shelter, since the
animals have always been kept
in the founder's house, so progress
is being made, ever so slowly.Animales
S.O.S. also is the only organization
which enforces the laws protecting
the wild animals of Bolivia.
These animals are often found
being sold illegally in markets,
where they are neglected and
abused by their owners (or neglected
and abused by the people that
buy them). Compassionate Traveler
learned about Animales S.O.S.
from one of our volunteers, Valerie Belt.
While teaching at an American
school in Bolivia, Valerie volunteered
for Animales S.O.S. over a
two-year period. In addition
to donating her own time to the
organization, such as walking
rescued dogs cared for by Animales
S.O.S., she encouraged children
at the American school to help.
She sponsored a middle school
club which raised funds for Animales
S.O.S. through bake sales. The
students also provided items
such as stuffed animals, dog
collars, leashes, and ID tags
in exchange for donations. Valerie's
second year of volunteering also
included working with high school
students in a Roots & Shoots club
(a program of the Jane Goodall
Institute - see http://www.rootsandshoots.org/).
The high school club's activities
to support Animals S.O.S. included
raising money, holding a dog
food drive, building new cages
for the wild birds rescued by
Animales S.O.S., and doing dog
care education at a local orphanage
in La Paz.For more information,

THE ANN COTTRELL FREE WEBSITE Ann Cottrell Free was a pioneering woman journalist, author and poet whose life's work was inspired by three giants of her time: Eleanor Roosevelt, Rachel Carson and Albert Schweitzer. Ann devoted her life to telling the stories of those in need, writing about human suffering, the plight of refugees, civil rights, nature, the environment and the welfare of animals. She often found that she was ahead of her time and broke new ground as the "first" to do many things.

CERTIFIED
HUMANE
The
industrialization
and
consolidation
of
animal
agriculture
in
the
United
States
and
around
the
world
has
created
enormous
“factory
farms.”
The
resulting
intensive
confinement
and
overcrowding
of
livestock
in
modern
agriculture
can
create
stress
that
impairs
an
animal’s
growth
or
production.
All
too
often,
growth
hormones
and
other
chemical
food
additives
are
used
to
compensate
--
additives
you
probably
would
prefer
not
to
consume.
While
these
conditions
may
be
common,
the
good
news
is
they
are
not
universal.
Many
producers
(individuals
and
businesses
that
raise
food-producing
animals)
provide
their
farm
animals
with
treatment
that
safeguards
an
animal’s
well-being
and
respects
its
natural
behaviors.
But
how
do
you
know
which
producers
are
which?
The
Certified
Humane
Raised
&
Handled
label
says
it
all.
Producers’
claims
that
they
give
their
farm
animals
a
more
natural,
healthful
environment
are
a
good
start,
but
the
Certified
Humane
Raised
&
Handled
labeling
process
goes
further.
Food
items
that
carry
the
label
are
certified
to
have
come
from
facilities
that
meet
precise,
objective
standards
for
farm
animal
treatment.

THE CLOUD FOUNDATION The Cloud Foundation, a Colorado non-profit corporation, grew out of Ginger Kathrens’ knowledge and fear for not only Cloud’s herd but other wild horses in the West. “I began to realize that we were losing America’s wild horses,” Ginger says. “They are rounded up by the thousand, losing in an instant what they value most--freedom and family. I realized that even Cloud and his family were in danger.”

The Dharma Donkey Sanctuary is situated in the village Sagroli, Maharashtra, where donkeys are still a primary means of transport. Donkeys are the most useful but the most neglected animal in the area. More than 5000 donkeys in the area are engaged in human service in different ways. Farmers rely on donkeys for transporting farm produce, fertilizers and other materials from village to the farm, and they are even used in construction work for transporting sand, bricks, and soil. The existing government veterinary services are inadequate to provide services to the donkeys, as it is limited to farming animals only. Moreover, the veterinarians do not have sufficient experience in donkey treatment, vaccination, traditional herbal medicine and about the proper diet of donkeys.
The donkey owners are not interested in the expense of treating old, wounded and ailing donkeys. The poor, helpless donkey owners leave the donkeys to their fate to survive the rest of their lives. Sometimes the stray dogs kill such wounded donkeys.
The objective of Dharma Donkey Sanctuary is not only to take care of abused donkeys, but also to awaken awareness and love for animals in the community in general and children in particular. Children have been involved in the activities of the Sanctuary right form the beginning.
Established in January 2002 at the auspicious hands of Ms. Maneka Gandhi, the well known environmentalist and animal lover, D.D.S. has implemented an exceptional donkey care and protection program. This is a unique effort launched and carried out effectively by an NRI Mr. Ratilal and his wife Mrs. Bonny Shah of U.S.A, who have also generously supported a residential school and the orphan rural boys and girls since 1986.

F
FARM Most farmed animals
are raised on factory "farms," where they spend their
entire lives in cages or crates
so small that they can not
even turn around. Farmed animals
are not protected from cruelty
under the law. In fact, the majority
of state anti-cruelty laws
specifically exempt farm animals
from basic humane protection — so
abandoning a sick animal on
a pile of dead animals is considered “normal
animal agricultural” practice. Hilda on a "deadpile" Farm
animals are living, feeling
animals, not agribusiness “commodities.” Farm
Sanctuary is working to change
the way society views and treats
animals used for food production.
With the active support of
over 100,000 members, we are.

: La F.L.A.C est née au lendemain des “Journées
Européennes Anticorrida” qui eurent lieu en avril
93 à Béziers. Elle
est née de la volonté déterminée
d’un très grand nombre d’associations de Protection
Animale de confier à une “cellule spécialisée” les
actions en direction de la
tauromachie ibérique. Elle est pareillement née du constat que les divers combats
contre la cruauté ne sont pas opposables mais complémentaires.
Le monde humain et le monde animal occupant l’espace Terre
doivent pouvoir y cohabiter
pacifiquement. Par ailleurs, si la mort est
inéluctable, en revanche la cruauté et la souffrance
infligées ne le sont pas qui, plus est pour le lucre et
pour le divertissement ce qui
est encore moins acceptable La F.L.A.C. souhaite une information
du public complète et objective concernant la corrida, rétablissant
ainsi l’équilibre en donnant la parole à toutes
celles et tous ceux qui, jusque là, ne peuvent exprimer
leur opposition.
La F.L.A.C dénonce toute banalisation de la violence, et
plus particulièrement son apprentissage par de très
jeunes enfants qui peuvent à loisir exercer des “talents” hautement
condamnables dans des “Centres de Tauromachie”.
La F.L.A.C dénonce les agissements d’un groupe ultra
minoritaire qui bénéficie cependant de l’appui
des collectivités territoriales, notamment en matière
de financement grâce aux deniers publics.
L’évolution des mœurs fait de la corrida une
pratique totalement indéfendable.
Ainsi la F.L.A.C compte, à terme, obtenir son abolition.

IN DEFENSE OF ANIMALS—AFRICA- In Defense of Animals-Africa’s mission is to save Cameroon's chimpanzees and gorillas from extinction. The illegal bushmeat trade and habitat loss are the primary threats to ape populations. IDA-Africa wages a Public Education and Sensitization Campaign, producing and distributing posters and brochures, giving presentations in schools and communities, and broadcasting radio ads to raise awareness of laws against holding or killing chimpanzees and gorillas and make it socially unacceptable to eat them. IDA-Africa’s Sanaga-Yong Chimpanzee Rescue Center (SYCRC) provides sanctuary to 55 chimpanzees ~ all of whom are orphans of the illegal bushmeat trade. Hunters captured them as young babies, often still clinging to their mothers’ bodies, to sell as "pets" or hotel “mascots”. Some orphans at SYCRC were rescued as infants, others languished in strict, debilitating confinement for decades before their second chance for a life of joy and dignity at SYCRC.
IDA-Africa offers volunteer opportunities in Cameroon and an Adopt-A-Chimpanzee program.

The Kindness Trust Our mission is: “To promote kindness towards all other living beings and
enshrine it as a recognisable trait in the Australian character and culture ” From their stateted beliefs: "I can understand why some theologians believe animals have no souls. To the tortured animal, the only evidence of the existence of God is the absence of the torturer. In their cages, I would have little difficulty concluding that my jailer was living proof that God is deaf, blind, indifferent or dead. Standing in front of a torture chamber I realised the beast was outside the bars and I was two yards away from becoming an atheist."

Korean
Animal
Protection
Society
KAPS
is
dedicated
to
promoting
animal
welfare
and
protection
in
Korea
through
education,
stricter
animal
cruelty
laws
and
the
continued
development
of
the
KAPS
shelter.
The
KAPS
shelter,
located
in
Taegu,
South
Korea,
is
the
only
shelter
in
the
country
that
cares
for
companion
animals.
Currently,
KAPS
provides
shelter
to
more
than
85
dogs
and
260
cats
as
well
as
a
few
orphaned
or
injured
wildlife.
In
spite
of
a
1991
law
which
prohibits
the
human
consumption
of
dogs
and
cats,
a
flourishing
industry
exists
within
the
markets
in
Korea.
Illegal
and
unsanitary
dog
farms
are
hidden
away
in
the
countryside
where
breeders
raise
their
stock
for
the
butchers.
Because
we
are
a
grassroots
organization,
we
need
your
help
to
campaign
against
these
violations
which
most
Koreans
ignore
and
the
government
will
not
enforce.
Most
urgently,
we
need
your
help
to
keep
our
shelter
operating.

be a Good Samaritan to animals. Prepare now to help animals in need, to be a Good Samaritan for pets and animals. Animal abuse, neglect, and distress is epidemic, is often institutionally supported, and is worldwide. You may find animals in distress in your own neighborhood. Be prepared to take reasonable, safe action to help them. Sunbear needed help and didn't get it; he died slowly and painfully of neglect. This site is dedicated to his memory in hopes of encouraging you to be a Good Samaritan.

The Zeke Fund Animal Rescue is a Texas (Spring/Brookshire) unwanted animals organization formed as a result of a sad incident involving the poor canine whose name the organization later took. In August 2004 a local stray was hit by a car.
The dog was picked up by animal control and put in an uncovered, stretch metal cage in 100 degree heat for four days. On the fifth day an animal advocate who heard of the animals plight took possession of him and took him to the vet.
The dog, now named Zeke, had injuries which included a broken back, pelvis, and two legs. There was no choice but to humanely euthanize Zeke. On that day the Zeke Fund came into being with the promise - "Never Again!"
