By leaving a legacy gift to Animal Equality, you can help us:

  • Keep our investigators in the field: Our undercover investigators go behind closed doors to expose the hidden cruelty of the animal agriculture industry. With your support, we can conduct more investigations and uncover the truth about how animals are treated on factory farms and in slaughterhouses.
  • Expand our policy work: Through campaigns and educational outreach, we work to secure policies from companies and corporations to improve animal protection standards and reduce the suffering of farmed animals. Your legacy gift can help us expand this important work and encourage companies to adopt cruelty-free policies.
  • Help change animal protection laws: Our legal advocacy team protects animals all over the world by creating robust animal protection statutes and ensuring that existing laws and regulations are strictly enforced. Your bequest will help fund these life-saving initiatives.
  • Reach a larger audience with our message: Our campaigns raise awareness about the suffering of farmed animals and inspire people to make more compassionate choices. Your support can help us reach more people through digital media, advertising, and grassroots outreach.
