What are this organization’s external mobilizaton efforts?
As an accompaniment to the GFAS accreditation program, we maintain and make available a growing library of resources to help sanctuaries help animals, including 40+ webinars and a multitude of sample and template documents on topics ranging from animal care to non-profit governance and business operations. GFAS also attends, tables, and presents at a number of major animal welfare industry events each year, to communicate the value of GFAS accreditation for sanctuaries and raise the profile of GFAS to sanctuary groups, foundations, donors, and the public.
GFAS embraces collaborative spirit, as we work together with like-minded partner organizations to improve animal care, sanctuary safety and sustainability, and seek feedback on our Standards. We serve as a steering committee member of the BCSA, associate member of WFA, member of the Homes for Horses Coalition, Right Horse Initiative Industry Partner, and ambassador of the Equine Welfare Data Collective, among others.
