The Fund for Animals was founded in 1967 by prominent author and animal advocate Cleveland Amory. Since then, The Fund for Animals has spearheaded significant events in the history of the animal protection movement by employing national advocacy campaigns, rescue operations and operating a network of world-famous animal care facilities like our Cleveland Amory Black Beauty Ranch. The Fund for Animals' historic victiries have saved thousands of animals from cruelty and suffering. In 2005, The Fund for Animals and The Humane Society of the United States joined together to form an unprecedented partnership for animals. Since then, The Fund for Animals has expanded its efforts to protect animals from cruelty and provide for their veterinary, sanctuary, and rehabilitative needs at several direct animal care facilities. With the help of Animal Protection Litigation, The Fund has won legal actions to protect endangered species and prevent inhumane hunting and trapping practices. The Fund for Animals' direct animal care operations provide veterinary treatment for thousands of animals year-round, while training volunteers and supporting their local communities. Your support will be an invaluable contribution to our development.
