PROBLEM:
Everyday, more than 9,000 healthy, treatable and adoptable cats and dogs are killed in shelters across America.
SOLUTION:
Best Friends Animal Society is the only national animal welfare organization focused exclusively on ending the killing of dogs and cats in America's shelters. An authority and leader in the no-kill movement, Best Friends runs the nation's largest no-kill sanctuary for companion animals, as well as lifesaving programs in partnership with rescue groups and shelters across the country. Since its founding in 1984, Best Friends has helped reduce the number of animals killed in shelters nationwide from 17 million per year to about 4 million. That means there are still over 9,000 dogs and cats killed in shelters each day. And we will not be done until that number is zero. Best Friends believes in taking a positive and collaborative approach to saving lives. With our vast knowledge, technical expertise and on-the-ground network of partners, we will end the killing and Save Them All.® Learn more at bestfriends.org
