Dear John,
Thirty years ago, our founder planted a simple, yet transformative idea: nonhuman animals are entitled not just to our compassion but to actual, enforceable legal rights. What began as one lawyer on a mission to end the legal “thinghood” of members of other species has grown into a movement rooted in the belief that our most cherished values and principles of justice–liberty, equality, and fairness–should protect nonhuman animals, too.
This spring, as we celebrate our 30th anniversary, we’re looking back on how the NhRP and our supporters have sowed the seeds of justice for nonhuman animals and made it possible for legal and societal change to start taking root. For the next 30 days, we’ll be sharing reflections from the early years of the NhRP, fresh takes on four key NhRP achievements that took place in May, storytelling about our clients’ lives, personal narratives from some of the many people who’ve joined us along the way, and more.
Our goal for the month is ambitious: to raise $30,000 in the next 30 days. Thirty years ago, our founder planted hope. Help us grow what’s next by donating to the NhRP today: |
Every donation, no matter the amount, helps move us that much closer, that much faster to a future where nonhuman animals are included in considerations of justice–not systematically left out.
Since we’ll be sending more emails than usual in May, it’s important to us to allow you to choose how much content, and what kind of content, you receive from us this month. Click here to make your selections. Even if you can’t donate right now, we hope you’ll still read along!
Thank you for being an NhRP supporter, Lauren Choplin Communications Director, the NhRP |
