Farm Sanctuary, Inc.
ABOUT US
The first of its kind, Farm Sanctuary was founded in 1986 to provide direct care for rescued farm animals along with education and advocacy to combat the disastrous effects of animal agriculture. Our work intersects with the most critical issues we face today, including the climate crisis, ecological destruction, hunger and inequity. Low-income neighborhoods, disenfranchised farmers, slaughterhouse workers and underresourced communities suffer alongside animals as victims.
YEAR ESTABLISHED
1986
SERVICE AREA
With sanctuaries in L.A. and New York, we care for hundreds of rescued farm animals and host tours and events where visitors can meet them. Our nationwide network helps place thousands more animals in loving homes each year. We’re active in Washington, DC and across the country working with lawmakers, front-line partners and allies to advance policies that serve the common good.
MISSION STATEMENT
Farm Sanctuary pursues bold solutions to end animal agriculture and foster just and compassionate vegan living. We change lives through rescue, hearts and minds through education, and systems through advocacy.
