Alliance For Animals

Campaigns and Committee Meetings

If you are interested in committing to more than a one-time event, consider joining one of our current campaigns (or start one of your own!). AFA’s campaign meetings are either weekly or monthly depending on the issue. If you would like to attend a meeting, be sure to contact Lynn at alliance@allanimals.org or one of the specific names listed with the campaign for an exact time and location. We always welcome new ideas – perhaps you have an interest in animals in entertainment or wildlife; start your own group. We will support you in any way that we can.

Covance Protest Alliance for Animals Primate Freedom Project - AFAPFP
(Antivivisection Campaign)

This is an active and dedicated group of concerned citizens that has been meeting weekly for over four years. AFAPFP has held monthly presentations throughout Madison, has met with legislators, been published numerous times in the local papers, has held demonstrations, cable television programs, has a table at the Capitol Square Farmer’s Market, and produces literature to educate the public about the horrors taking place at UW Madison and Covance.

The date of the next Primate Freedom meeting is pending. We typically meet every Thursday at 6:00 p.m. at 122 State Street, room 405. Call Ann at 271-8790 for information.

Vegan Campaign
This campaign focuses on educating the public and advocating for a vegan lifestyle. Veganism is the one thing that we can do today to help animals and it does not require a ton of money or extensive time. If you would like information on becoming involved with getting the word out about vegan issues, contact the Alliance for Animals.

Companion Animals
The Companion Animal campaign's goal is to raise public awareness about the protection and care of companion animals.Recent and possible future projects include public outreach; publication of a pamphlet encouraging spaying, neutering and alternatives to declawing, providing elementary schools statewide free subscriptions to Kind News, a humane education newsletter published by The Humane Society of the United States; working to pass legislation prohibiting chaining dogs and dog fighting; protesting the Thorp, Wisconsin dog auction, in conjunction with the Wisconsin Puppy Mill Project; and compiling a directory of Wisconsin companion animal services and resources.
