Our goal for Colorado Gives Day is to increase support for our Wildlife Law Program, so we can take on even more critical cases to safeguard wildlife. 

Early giving goes further! Now, through December 10, your first monthly gift made through this page will be matched by the Colorado Gives Foundation, up to $100.00, until funds of $250,000.00 run out.  All donations will be boosted by a $1 million Incentive Fund, and we will receive a share based on total funds raised.

Mission

Friends of Animal's Wildlife Law Program is dedicated to protecting wildlife and their habitats in Colorado and around the globe.

Background Statement

Friends of Animals (FoA) is a non-profit, international animal advocacy organization established in 1957. Our goal is to free animals from cruelty and institutionalized exploitation around the world. We place critical habitat, wildlife protection and veganism at the core of animal advocacy.

Launched in 2013, FoA's Wildlife Law Program distinctly utilizes the law to ensure the right of all wildlife to live free from human manipulation, exploitation, and abuse. From our offices in Centennial, our attorneys and advocates fight for the rights and ethical consideration of all nonhuman animals. We also tackle major contributors to climate change resulting from human activities, including deforestation, animal agriculture, and fossil fuels.
