Who We Are

PAAWW was founded by four women from the Chicago area, who came together to stand against the dog and cat meat trade and have expanded to promote animal welfare worldwide.

What We Do

PAAWW’s mission is to bring awareness to animal cruelty through hope and recovery, fostering leadership skills, mentoring our growing network and working with rescue partners. We have a true commitment to nonviolence and protection for the voiceless and work tirelessly to support local organizations as well as those across the globe. A large focus of our group is raising awareness of animal abuse and ultimately passing laws to protect those who cannot speak for themselves.
