How we treat farm animals matter

cagesIt may surprise you to learn that sometimes we’re called “crazy” for caring at all about the welfare of the animals we eat.

“Why should we care about how animals are raised for food?” people say to me.

Ah, excuse me? Just because animals are raised for food, doesn’t mean we can abuse them while they’re alive.

I care, and thankfully, I get through each day knowing there are people like you who care about how farm animals are raised and treated throughout their lives.

Like me, you want to see an end to factory farming where laying hens are forced to live in battery cages and where pigs are forced to live in gestation crates where they can’t lay down or turn around in.

You want farmers to introduce kinder more humane farm animal practices. And you want assurances that those farmers are doing what they say they are doing.

That’s where Humane Farm Animal Care can help.

We provide third-party independent inspections of farms so when you see the Certified Humane Raised and Handled® label on a product, you can be assured that the food products have come from farms that meet our precise, humane standards of animal care.

And thanks to your support, more than 96.7 million farm animals now live more natural lives on farms in the U.S., Canada, Brazil and Peru.

But we need your support to continue inspecting farms and convincing farmers to join the Certified Humane® program. We receive no government funding and no major grants. As a grassroots organization, we rely solely on gifts from people like you who want to see an end to factory farming. 

Can you help us with a gift of $25, $35, $45 or more today? Or a monthly re-occurring gift of $19 or more to ensure our work continues without interruption?

Your gift will ensure that more and more farm animals are raised under the Certified Humane® program. And that is our sole mission.

Thank you for your support.

With gratitude,

Sincerely,


Adele Douglass
Executive Director
