About Us. We are an organization that focuses on animal rights and the protection of animals. The 4 major areas that we work on the most consist of: factories, farms, laboratories, clothing and entertainment industry. PETA stands for People of the Ethical Treatment of Animals. We believe that animals are no ours to eat, wear, experiment on, or use for entertainment. It was founded in 1980 by Ingrid Newkirk and Alex Pacheco. It was dedicated to establishing the rights of animals. We have about 2 million members, but the more the merrier.

Conservation Efforts  PETA educates the policy makers and the public about animal abuse.  PETA promotes better treatment of animals.  Some of the animals that they are trying to help save are the silver spring monkeys, sheep, and chickens from KFC.  They are also trying to help the hamsters that are being abused at one of the pet stores.

DONATE NOW! Even though we do have many supporters who donate, it couldn’t hurt the animals any more if we were to have more money to put towards them. They need our help and with out people donating, we can’t help save the animals that are being tortured. Please donate now and don’t wait any longer. We need your help and so do the helpless animals.

Look at these animals that need your money… How could you resist??? Was hit in the face with a hammer to "teach him a lesson."
