IFAW

Who we are

IFAW (the International Fund for Animal Welfare) saves animals in need all around the world. With projects in more than 40 countries, IFAW provides hands-on assistance to animals in need, whether it’s cats and dogs, wildlife and livestock, or rescuing animals in the wake of disasters. We also advocate saving populations from cruelty and depletion, such as our campaign to end commercial whaling and seal hunts.

Our vision is a world where animals are respected and protected. IFAW believes in the intrinsic value of animals and that we have a responsibility to protect them from suffering and unnecessary exploitation. We rescue and care for individual animals and deliver effective solutions for the long-term protection of animal populations and habitats.
