Together with our communities, SPCA has been protecting New Zealand’s animals for over 140 years – animals who are sick, injured, neglected, abused or simply abandoned.
SAFE is an animal rights organization in NZ that promotes veganism. Their website is helpful also with general tips about how to shop cruelty products, how to choose food in restaurants and great places to volunteer to help animal welfare.
The Black Sheep Animal Sanctuary is a safe and sustainable space to rehabilitate and re-home abused, injured and neglected animals.
This 32 acre property has grazing land to permanently home abused animals, and is bordered by 400 acres of protected bush where we can safely release rehabilitated native birds.
Animals Aotearoa shines a light on what is hidden behind the walls of factory-farm sheds, and helps chickens bred for meat by achieving corporate policies to substantially improve their welfare.
Animals Aotearoa is one of over 80 organisations who make up the Open Wing Alliance, a global coalition of animal advocacy organisations, with the shared purpose of working to substantially improve the welfare of chickens.
Animals Aotearoa is a registered charity formed at the start of 2021, with a grant from the Centre for Effective Altruism. The grant was from their Animal Welfare Fund to support campaigning for corporate policy change to improve the lives of the approximately 120 million chickens used in the meat industry in New Zealand. This grant was to pay for staff and operating expenses. We subsequently received a grant from the Open Wing Alliance to support our corporate campaigns work. Both funders have awarded us with additional grants.
Following the success of animal organisations overseas in achieving commitments from hundreds of food businesses to create significant welfare improvements for chickens, via the Better Chicken Commitment, we are working to create the same progress in Aotearoa.
