WHO WE ARE:
The Anti-Fur Society is a group of dedicated, committed and caring volunteers working around the world to better the lives of fur-bearing animals. your contributions--100% of which will go toward helping fur-bearing animals regardless of their geographical location.
OUR GOAL:
To help convince every man, woman and child on the planet about the barbaric practices of the fur industry, or we will never live to see the suffering of fur-bearing animals come to an end. Thus, our focus is to form groups or support already existing ones in areas notorious for cruel methods of fur production. By informing consumers across the globe, we hope to encourage them to make conscientious choices by not purchasing fur or leather products as well as other items based on animal exploitation. We plan to help connect anti-fur groups around the planet, like links in a chain, each group bringing awareness of the issues at stake to people in their respective communities. Through diplomacy, education and outreach, we strive to make people around the world aware of the intense suffering caused by the making of fur and leather garments.

We are successfully networking with groups in particularly troubled areas to achieve two main goals: Help animals in dire need, and teach by example in order to bring forth the unrealized compassion in most people.
