The Voice of Our Supporters

“I want to thank you for your exceptional courage in bringing to light the terrible treatment of animals in all the countries where you work. I deeply appreciate it and can only imagine how difficult it can be to do this work. But thanks to your investigations and efforts people become aware of the horrors perpetrated on animals.”
Miriam
Donor and Supporter of Animal Equality
“Animal rights is my biggest passion. Sometimes as an animal lover I can feel a little helpless as I know what goes on behind those factory farm doors. When I give to Animal Equality I feel a little more at ease as I have total faith that they are doing what they can as effectively as possible with the resources they have and doing an absolutely amazing job creating direct, real changes.”
Marios
Donor and Supporter of Animal Equality
“You are the strength that many of us do not have in facing the cruelties of this society. Thank you for your courage and hard work. Years ago I would never have thought of switching to a plant-based diet, but now, thanks to your investigations and hard sacrifice, you give me one more reason to be proud of my choice.”
Filippo
Donor and Supporter of Animal Equality
“When you witness the horror that really happens behind closed doors in slaughterhouses to farm animals all over the world, it’s impossible not to be affected by it and to realise that we have to do something drastic to stop it.”
Joaquin Phoenix
Actor, Activist and Supporter of Animal Equality
“Nothing prepares you for looking into the eyes of a mother pig whose life is to be impregnated and left in a cage until she’s slaughtered. I can’t imagine how awful it must be to be literally trapped and crushing your own babies and not be able to do anything about it.”
Rooney Mara
Actor, Activist and Supporter of Animal Equality
“Going into that foie gras farm gave me an insight, if only brief, into the lives of the brave activists who venture into factory farms and slaughterhouses to uncover all manner of animal abuses. I’m talking about the investigators who see the kinds of things I saw and feel the kind of pain I felt, and yet make the difficult decision to go back again day after day to do more.”
Peter Egan
Actor, Activist and Supporter of Animal Equality

Why farmed animals?

Every year in the world more than 70 billion farmed land animals are bred and killed for human consumption. This number does not include farmed fish. But despite these alarming statistics, farmed animals are often forgotten and donations made to help them account for less than 1% of all donations to animal charities. 

This is why the fact that until 30th June all donations to Animal Equality will be matched is such an important opportunity. Because it allows you to double your impact on their lives and help us create a world where they don’t have to suffer.

How we will use your donations?

We will carry out and publish shocking investigations that will highlight the exploitation of animals in factory farms and slaughterhouses.

With the images and the footage we capture, we will show people up and down the country that animals need help and inspire people to take action and add their voice to our mission. In addition to this, we will use the evidence we uncover to push the Government for change and report any wrongdoing our investigators witness to the authorities so that those who mistreat animals are held accountable.

We will challenge the government and push for institutional change.

We are closer than ever to securing a ban on the importation of foie gras into the UK and we will make sure that the Government delivers on its promise for a ban. We will also continue to work closely with leading experts, academics and lawyers to speak up for forgotten farmed fish and push for meaningful protections specific to them.

“Documenting the reality of animals inside factory farms and slaughterhouses is certainly something that leaves deep scars in the hearts of us investigators... but they know it is worthwhile, they know that it is the most powerful weapon we have to end the animals’ suffering.”
DULCE RAMÍREZ
Vice-President of Animal Equality in Latin America
“The industry responds to the publication of our investigations by claiming that cases of abuse are rare, but with each new investigation this excuse loses credibility. Around the world, Animal Equality has filmed on more than 800 farms, making it difficult for the industry to use the ‘bad apple’ excuse.”
SHARON NÚÑEZ
President of Animal Equality
“The task of our team of investigators is to open the cracks in the walls erected by the industry and bring light where total darkness reigns.”
