About Our Mission
The National Friends of Animals Chamber of Commerce® – NFACC is the business voice of the Animal Rights and Welfare community, the largest advocacy organization dedicated to expanding economic opportunities and advancements for Animal Rights and Welfare, and the independent certifying body for Animal Rights and Welfare -owned businesses.
ANIMAL RIGHTS
In his book Animal Liberation, Peter Singer states that the basic principle of equality does not require equal or identical treatment; it requires equal consideration.
ANIMAL WELFARE
We believe that animals have an inherent worth—a value completely separate from their usefulness to humans. We believe that every creature with a will to live has a right to live free from pain and suffering.
LEGISLATION
We work at the state and local levels to advance important legislation. We advocate for laws that promote or protect the lives and interests of animals, and we oppose legislation that would be detrimental to animals’ well-being.
STERILIZATION
Neutering is the most common method for the sterilization of animals. Humane societies, animal shelters, and us urge pet owners to have their pets neutered to prevent the births of unwanted litters, which contribute to the overpopulation of unwanted animals in the rescue system.
EDUCATION
As an educator, we have a chance to teach our students that all animals—whether a rat, a pig, a dog, or a child—feel pain, happiness, and fear and want to live. Teaching empathy and compassion for animals not only help animals but also lessens the likelihood that kids will grow up to be cruel to other kids. We know, for example, that many violent offenders, including many serial killers, started out harming animals before moving on to humans.

Happening Now
Animals are fighting for their lives
Every day in countries around the world, animals are fighting for their lives. They are enslaved, beaten, and kept in chains to make them perform for humans’ “entertainment”; they are mutilated and confined to tiny cages so that we can kill them and eat them; they are burned, blinded, poisoned, and cut up alive in the name of “science”; they are electrocuted, strangled, and skinned alive so that people can parade around in their coats; and worse.

We are all animals
We believe all beings deserve liberty and respect not because they share the characteristics we admire in ourselves but because they are living beings. We share the same evolutionary origins, we inhabit the same Earth, and we are ruled by the same laws of nature. We are all the same.
