ABOUT

We’re beyond excited to welcome you to a community where compassion turns into action, where every effort matters, and where together, we fight to protect and uplift animals in desperate need. At the United Animal Welfare Fund (UAWF), we hold a simple but powerful belief: **every paw matters, and every moment counts.**  

​

Our mission, “Protecting Lives, One Paw at a Time,” isn’t just words—it’s a call to action, as urgent as it is life-changing. Right now, there are animals crying out for help: neglected, abandoned, or at risk of never knowing safety or love. With your support, we can be their lifeline—rescuing those in danger, providing critical medical care, and finding them loving homes where they can finally thrive.  

This isn’t just a cause; it’s a movement for awareness, education, and action. Every story we share, every fact we reveal, and every opportunity we offer is designed to inspire and equip you to take meaningful steps. Because together, we’re not just saving lives—we’re creating a future where no animal is left behind.  

Here, you’ll find real stories of transformation, ways to volunteer, and proof of the impact you’re helping to create. Let’s not wait until tomorrow; the animals need us today. **Join us, and let’s make a difference—one paw at a time.**  

 

Together, we can build a world where every animal is safe, loved, and cherished. Thank you for joining us on this journey. Let’s change lives—one paw at a time.

Why UAWF is Needed:
Millions of animals are abandoned, abused, or exploited each year. Whether it’s an animal left behind during a natural disaster, a dog rescued from a puppy mill, or wildlife threatened by habitat loss, animals need a voice. UAWF is here to be that voice—to advocate for their rights, provide them with second chances, and educate the public about the importance of animal welfare.

UAWF helps to ensure that all animals, from family pets to wild creatures, are treated with the respect, care, and love they deserve. We believe that together, we can create a kinder world for all living beings.

The United Animal Welfare Fund is a nonprofit organization that focuses on:

  1. Stopping Puppy Mills: The first step is to stop supporting puppy mills. Never buy a puppy from a pet store. For some people it is sometimes an impulse purchase. Visit your local shelter or rescue, a few times, spend time with the pup your interested in.

  2. Ending Stray Overpopulation: Imagine a life without a home, constant hunger, exposure to the elements, and no one to care for you. This is the daily reality for millions of stray animals. 

  3. Public Education and Awareness:
    UAWF is committed to educating the public on how to properly care for pets and prevent animal cruelty. Through community outreach, educational campaigns, and resources, we promote responsible pet ownership and compassionate treatment of all animals, including farm animals and wildlife.

  4. Petition Campaigns:
    We empower our supporters to take action by signing petitions and supporting campaigns that demand stronger protections for animals. Our efforts focus on ending inhumane practices in industries that exploit animals for profit, including the entertainment and food industries.

  5. Rescue and Shelter Support Services:
    UAWF responds to animals in distress—whether they are victims of cruelty, neglect, or disasters. We help to provide emergency rescue, medical treatment, and shelter to animals in need, ensuring they receive the care and compassion they deserve until they are ready for adoption.
