At the Arizona Humane Society, we strive to show compassion, acceptance and love. Just like the animals we’re here to serve. Mission Our mission is to improve the lives of animals, alleviate their suffering, and elevate their status in society. We safeguard, rescue, shelter, heal, adopt and advocate for animals in need, while inspiring community action and compassion on their behalf.

This dimension guides our Confident Transparency and helps to deliver Dignity for People and Pets. Dignity for People and Pets AHS’ Compassionate Spirit guides the organization in its efforts to do what’s best for the animals and the people in their lives. Individual interactions with AHS occur for many reasons and are often emotionally charged – some encounters are extraordinarily happy and others are terribly difficult. The people of the Arizona Humane Society empathize with the circumstances of all stakeholders and try to respect each situation with Dignity for People and Pets. The experience becomes uniquely AHS when the organization is aligned to deliver a dignified experience regardless of circumstances. Confident Transparency AHS is the leading animal welfare organization in the state of Arizona and is confident in its operations and its immense contribution to the community. Guided by its Compassionate Spirit and a commitment to Dignity for People and Pets, the organization is empowered to stand up for its beliefs and communicate the gravity of an extreme pet overpopulation crisis. The Arizona Humane Society can, unapologetically, discuss its tireless dedication to doing what’s best for the animals in the context of the harsh realities that cannot be solved without the community’s commitment to alleviating the pet overpopulation crisis. Joy of Pets Joy of Pets is deeply rooted in the organization’s heritage. This dimension suggests AHS is proud of its pets and enjoys the responsibility of compassionately stewarding the lives of animals. For many decades, the television show Pets on Parade, the Pet Telethon, and other less visible programs have highlighted the joy a pet offers. Joy of Pets evokes this emotion in potential forever families and begins to foreshadow how their lives can be enriched by an Arizona Humane Society pet. Joy of Pets suggests a personality that is caring but also spirited and playful. Joy of Pets is built on a relationship of trust and a genuine Compassionate Spirit.

Without the actions of pollinators agricultural economies, our food supply, and surrounding landscapes would collapse. Pollinator Partnership's mission is North American in scope, conducting programs and projects in the US, Canada, and Mexico.
The Vanderpump Dog Foundation, founded in 2016, is a 501c3 dog rescue organization working on both a domestic and international front to help create a better world for dogs globally. Although we are a Los Angeles based Foundation, our story begins in Yulin, China. After becoming aware of the Yulin Dog Meat Festival and witnessing the horrific images of slaughter and abuse that the dogs in Yulin face, our founders Lisa Vanderpump and Ken Todd began the long journey towards trying to stop the barbaric torture practices in Yulin and end the dog meat trade in Asia. Together with their partner, Dr. John Sessa, they launched the campaign Stop Yulin Forever. The movement gained momentum and has inspired activists all over the world to end the Yulin Dog Meat Festival and encourage more humane treatment for dogs worldwide. The Vanderpump Dog Foundation was formed to not only aid in ending this international atrocity, but to also better the lives of dogs domestically. The United States faces many problems of its own including dog overpopulation, abuse, neglect and lack of education with regards to spaying and neutering pets. The Foundation is built on a platform of education, legislation, and activism. The Vanderpump Dog Foundation has both short and long term goals. Our approach is both pragmatic and political. With grassroots campaigns like free spay/neuter days for rescue pet owners in Los Angeles, to global health studies with the World Health Organization to ban the consumption of dog meat, The Vanderpump Dog Foundation has a multifaceted approach to creating a better world for man’s best friend.
