CAARE is building a movement to educate people everywhere about the reality of animal testing – how it’s ruthless, ineffective and can be replaced with superior methods. And we are having successes.

Few people realize that over 100 million animals are abused and killed in experiments each year that are outdated, barbaric and a hindrance to medical progress. That’s why CAARE is building a movement to educate people everywhere about the reality of animal testing – how it’s ruthless, ineffective and can be replaced with superior methods.

CAARE is uncompromisingly committed to challenging the routine use of animals by the multibillion-dollar animal experimentation industry. And we are having success.

Will you chip in before midnight on December 31st to help us raise the $50,000 we need to power our work for the coming year?

I want to share some of the incredible progress CAARE has achieved working with a small team and limited budget:

• We shut down heinous experiments at the State University of NY that involved the live dissection of young cats and at the University of Missouri that inflicted painful burns and wounds on beagles’ eyes before killing them.
• We introduced The Humane Research and Testing Act of 2020 in Congress, a bill that has the potential to bring sweeping changes by establishing an NIH center for developing, funding and training scientists to use non-animal alternatives.
• We published the hard-hitting report, From Trauma to Treatment, exposing the brutality of PTSD research done on animals that consumes millions of dollars that could be treating patients [No More Animal Victims for PTSD Research].
• We launched our Terror in The Lab campaign, to expose current PTSD experiments done on animals with the aim of shutting them down.
• Closed the cat lab at the SUNY College of Optometry, where for over 35 years, live cats were dissected in despicable “curiosity” experiments.
• Ended experiments on beagles at University of Missouri that injured their eyes with acids and scalpels before killing them.
• Showed how we can fight the coronavirus pandemic without animal experiments and how non-animal methods were instrumental in rapidly developing a COVID vaccine.
• Exposed horrific vaping experiments on animals carried out by the CDC that forced animals to choke on noxious fumes and bombarded CDC with letters to call for an end.
• Investigated cruel experiments at Boston Children’s Hospital that cause mice to slowly suffocate, and inspired thousands of people to contact the hospital to end them.

CAARE is fighting back against the massive entities that perpetuate animal experiments, and we can't afford to let up.

Will you chip in before midnight on December 31st to help us raise the $50,000 we need to power our work for the coming year? Thank you!
