Animal Advocacy

Mission
Make animal treatment a crucial consideration in business, policy and personal decision-making.

Description
As Mahatma Gandhi famously said, "The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated." Helping to create a more compassionate society, the Foundation partners with focused, progressive, national animal protection organizations. With the twin goals of increasing legal rights for animals, while decreasing the amount of their suffering, we focus resources specifically on great apes and farmed animals -- the animals most like us, and the animals we like most to eat. Though frequently asked, the Foundation does not fund companion animal shelters or animal sanctuaries.
