IFAW explores new ways to improve conditions for animals, people, and the place we call home—and we’ve been leading the way for over 50 years. The problems we confront are urgent, complicated, and resistant to change. Solving them requires fresh thinking and bold action. So we look at the issues from different angles, make unexpected connections, and challenge the way things are done. Partnering with local communities, NGOs, and governments around the globe, we create real-world solutions that make an immediate and lasting impact.

Since 1965, we have provided opportunities for education, training, and employment for low income people living in all our South Shore communities. Last year, we stood for nearly 20,000 people, so they could live with dignity and realize their fullest potential. We stand with our communities. We employ over 175 people and do business with more than 250 companies, large and small, from Hull to Cape Cod and the Islands.
