I will always support an organization that works to keep animals from unnecessary suffering and horrors at medical research laboratories or universities. I hope one day, the practice of torturing animals for "medical resrach" to see if it will work on humans, becomes illegal.

I love the fact that AAVS is trying to educate people. I wish the universities and labs would stop the torture of animals--nowadays, there are more humane ways. More people should get together to request the government to stop funding these kind of experiments on animals. Please continue supporting AAVS so they can push the government to stop the abs-universities abusing animals!

AAVS improves the lives of animals through citizen activism, in-depth reports, legal strategies, and honest, compelling public education. Its many successful campaigns and programs include humane science education, alternative research, and sanctuary support. I use their compassionate shopping guide when purchasing cosmetics and cleaning supplies.

AAVS is one of the few but extremely important organizations trying reduce animal suffering in laboratories. Most people are unaware of the horrors that cats, dogs, rabbits, mice, hamsters, primates, and many other animals go through in order for products to be labeled safe for human and pet consumption.

Because it is difficult for an individual to make an impact directly, it is extremely important to morally and financially support AAVS so that they can reduce suffering and improve the lives of innocent animals.

AAVIS is helping people find alternatives to the cruel practices that have become acceptable in our society. Thank you to all the compassionate and intelligent people who are involved!

AAVS is the first organization that actually created a way for me to present viable educational options to my local school system's science/biology classes; options that did NOT involve vivisection. I have passed this information on to friends/family members in other school districts who were also interested. Many of these families have children in classes that have already experienced the inhumane treatment of animals and have joined me on the 'bandwagon.'
Respect for all life needs to start at a young age. Initial education should begin in the family, but it just makes sense that schools be setting the same example. AAVS gives us the tools to make that happen.
I would not be aware of so many opportunities for assisting in the protection of animals, including making sure my congressional reps are aware of my expectations and priorities, if AAVS didn't pass information to me in a timely manner, as well as presenting the options for making my voice count. AAVS is a dedicated organization, whose chief exec's do not take home outrageous salaries like other charitable organizations I've researched (i.e. on charitynavigator.com); I think that speaks for itself. I will continue to support them as long as I am able and hope that others will join me in keeping the AAVS healthy and an option in the future.

These guys do excellent work in educating people about alternatives to animal experimentation in education as well as campaigning against this form of human cruelty whether it be in the commercial or scientific arena.

The goal of ending animal experimentation (mutilation, torture, death) in the name of science ought be at the forefront of a compassionate populace. We need a strong drive toward that end. AAVS provides me actionable causes and also lists of cruelty free products. The leaping bunny logo on products at my local Hyvee healthmart help me choose (vote with my dollars) the items that I can feel good about using.

If you understand what an empath is, you may have some realization of my life. I can look at a picture, watch a video, read a book about animals and if it deals with the good, my heart is light. When it deals with abuse and misuse of animals, domestic, farm or wild - my stomach clenches and my heart begins to pound. So. I take action. AAVS takes action. It is not the only group to which I donate. Until humans realize that they are mammals, not special under a god, nor blessed with sovereign status, we will continue to misread our friends. To do good, to be kind, to be aware of another's plight, takes so little energy - feed the cat at your door, talk to a neighbor about their dog, give to a welfare group for animals (your little bit is added to another little bit - it is not necessary to give more than you can afford, but just give) - if you cannot help do not hinder or harm. Chimpanzees are nearly free. Other animals continue to be blighted. We need these groups - their voices, their energy, their focus. Hurray for AAVS!

Great organization. As a teacher, I appreciate all that AAVS has done to support "dissection choice" in schools. AAVS has wonderful materials for educators.

I am so thankful that AAVS continues to take on the horrors of live animal testing. It is amazing to me that in this day and age there still exist people who think it is perfectly sane and reasonable to torture living beings in the name of science. We need AAVS to be the voice on the animals behalf. They do a great job in an extremely heartbreaking and stressful environment.
