A 501(c)(3) animal protection nonprofit organization based in Columbus, OH. Focused on cruelty-free living, animal protection and pet adoption. PURPOSE: To influence and shape a culture of compassion, love, and equality that extends to all species of animals and breaks down the barriers that exist between companion and farm animals. MISSION: To advocate and protect all animal life through awareness, promotion, and outreach and encourage pet adoptions for companion animals. VALUES: Abuse is cruel, regardless of species, and all life is deserving of respect and compassion. Millions of companion animals are euthanized each year and it is our duty to save a life by choosing to adopt a pet rather than support a breeder or pet store. Raising awareness for pet homelessness and encouraging responsible pet ownership is essential. All animals have a right to peacefully coexist with humans as they are not here to solely serve and benefit humans.
