Campaign Story
Our furry friends are members of the family, and as such they need
our protection. Even the animals that don’t make the best house guests
— lions, tigers, bears...I’m looking at you — can certainly use some
human help.
Raising money for animals is different than raising money for
individuals. Animals can’t advocate for themselves and tell us they
need money to pay their vet bills. That’s why it’s important for
humans to fundraise for them. Also they can not protect themself
especially from people, it means from us. Me and my friends can not
agree using animals in experimental research. We are fighting for
that, but it requires income, which we dont have. So we ask to help us
to fight against testing animals.
There are a lot of organisations, which also fighting for that,
so we would like to join them and to show the world what big job we
did with YOUR help!
Using animals in research and to test the safety of products has
been a topic of heated debate for decades. According to data collected
by F. Barbara Orlans for her book, In the Name of Science: Issues in
Responsible Animal Experimentation, sixty percent of all animals used
in testing are used in biomedical research and product-safety testing
(62). People have different feelings for animals; many look upon
animals as companions while others view animals as a means for
advancing medical techniques or furthering experimental research.
However individuals perceive animals, the fact remains that animals
are being exploited by research facilities and cosmetics companies all
across the country and all around the world. Although humans often
benefit from successful animal research, the pain, the suffering, and
the deaths of animals are not worth the possible human benefits.
Therefore, animals should not be used in research or to test the
safety of products.
