Causes: Animal Protection & Welfare, Animal Training, Animals
Mission: Best Friends Animal Society® is the only national animal welfare organization focused exclusively on ending the killing of dogs and cats in America's shelters. To this end, Best Friends works with shelters, rescue groups and our members nationwide on a variety of grassroots programs. By implementing targeted spay/neuter and community cat programs – trap/neuter/return (TNR) programs – to reduce the number of animals who enter shelters, and by increasing the number of people who adopt pets, we know we can end the killing. We know we can Save Them All®.
Results: When Best Friends began in 1984, some 17 million animals died every year in our nation’s shelters, simply for not having safe places to call home. Today, that number is down to about 355,000.
Target demographics: Pets in shelters find homes.
Direct beneficiaries per year: Give 3,546 Network partners resources and tools to save more lives. 15 assessments of strengths and needs and corresponding action plans were provided at 13 agencies or shelters across 8 states. 3,729 animals welcomed to the Sanctuary
Geographic areas served: Local and national arenas
