Mission
Friends of Animals (FoA), founded in 1957, works to cultivate a respectful view of nonhuman animals, free-living and domestic. Our goal is to free animals from cruelty and institutionalized exploitation around the world. We inform members about animal advocacy issues and our progress in addressing them through our magazine, ActionLine, our Web site and other reports. We encourage our members to get involved in their own communities as volunteer activists and as representatives of our spay/neuter project. From its beginnings, FoA has administered a unique nationwide spay-neuter program to reduce overpopulation of cats and dogs, facilitating more than 2.5 million procedures.
