CHAIRPERSON'S MESSAGE

"COMPASSION WITHOUT ACTION IS EVIL"
- Smt. Maneka Sanjay Gandhi

Each species from bees to elephants create a protective shield for humans. The quality of our lives depends on them. When we eat them, exploit them, interfere with natural patterns by breeding one kind, and killing another, we destroy our own lives. As each species disappears, our quality of life becomes worse.

You can help, you can help us to help. You can form part of the magic circle of love around all life.

People for Animals works to create a kinder, gentler world for all. Formed in 1994, it has transformed animal welfare into an assertive, effective movement across the country. Our members include lawyers, film stars, business leaders, bureaucrats, teachers, and students. Our units span the country. Our work ranges from running shelters and ambulances to lobbying, fighting for animals in court, training judges, bureaucrats and police, producing information material. We have won victories for animals in Court, in research laboratories, racecourses, temples, circuses, and zoos.

PFA is regarded as one of the strongest animal groups in the world. When the world's first International Animal Welfare Directory was compiled, its UK publishers invited PFA to write the foreword. At home, in 2001 the first Padma Shri Award went to a PFA member, Dr. Norma Alvares. Humans cannot exist without animals. Yet we create a world in which they are abused and misused. Let us recognize the partnership between us and further it for the good of all animals - both on two legs and four.

Who We Are ?

Animal welfare is not just about animals. It is about us. Our living conditions, our children, our earth. Cruelty to animals has a significant and irreversible impact on peaceful societies, human health, the economy, and the environment. People for Animals, PFA, is India's largest Non-Governmental Animal Welfare Organization with a nationwide network of 26 hospitals, 165 units, 60 mobile units, and 2.5 Lakh members. We work to rescue and rehabilitate sick and needy animals. We set up and run shelters, ambulance services, sterilization programs, treatment camps and disaster rescue missions for animals. We conduct education programs in schools, fight cases in court, and lobby on animal issues in parliament.

PFA aims to set up an animal welfare centre in each of the nation's 600 districts.
