About us

For over 50 years, Compassion in World Farming has been fighting to give farmed animals lives worth living. We aim to end industrialized animal agriculture—and its inherent and widespread cruelty—and introduce regenerative farming systems that are kinder to animals, people and the planet.

Our dedicated teams work on the ground across the U.S., EU, UK, China and South Africa and with mission-aligned groups around the globe.

But it is supporters like you who are the beating heart of our organization and the worldwide movement to end factory farming.

We need you

A monthly gift is the most strategic way to support Compassion in World Farming, and, with it, you can make a difference every day of the year.

Our promise to you is to use your gift in the most effective manner possible to end factory farming:

  • Save Animals. Factory farming is the bigget cause of animal cruelty on the planet.
  • Save Our Planet. Factory farming intensifies climate change.
  • Save Wildlife. Factory farming threatens the survival of many animals and plants.
  • Save Our Future. Factory farming wastes resources, giving little food energy in return.
  • Save Our Health. Factory farming breeds disease and causes antibiotic resistance.

The vision, involvement and investment of Compassion in World Farming's monthly supporters will help the world move past cruelty and destruction, sparking a new era in agriculture and farmed animal welfare.

Together, we can pioneer abundant, sustainable food that is free from animal suffering, now and for generations to come.

Our farm animals often live lives of horror and suffering which is intolerable and unethical; CIWF has a greater impact on this plight than I can have on my own.

I LOVE all animals—they are family to me. Because I can't have a farm of my own in this lifetime, I choose to donate to Compassion USA. I so appreciate their involvement.
