Description

THL exists to end the abuse of animals raised for food. Through strategic corporate negotiations, policy change, and movement building, we meaningfully reduce the suffering of millions of animals on factory farms around the world each year. THL currently has a funding gap of $3.6M for 2025. Beyond that, we have developed detailed plans to absorb over $4M in additional funding to high-impact interventions to reduce the suffering of chickens, the most widely abused land animals. With these funds, we would allocate roughly:

  • $1M to Open Wing Alliance (OWA) program expansion and $1M in additional OWA regranting funds in support of our goals to spare 300M hens from cages globally and 1.3B chickens raised for meat from cruelty by 2030
  • $1M to US corporate cage-free accountability in support of our goal to reach a critical tipping point where two-thirds of hens in the US are spared from cages by 2030
  • $250,000 to Animal Policy Alliance (APA) program expansion and $750,000 to APA regranting in support of our goal to build political power in the US and pass increasingly ambitious legislation to protect farm animals.
