Caring Causes: Gifts for Humans that Help Animals

Here come the holidays, and what better way to celebrate the joyous season than to give gifts that please loved ones and help make the world a better place for animals? All of international animal welfare nonprofit Animals Asia’s holiday gifts will benefit the animals who the organization saves from cruelty in Vietnam and China, while offering recipients something special to enjoy throughout the year.

This year marks Animals Asia’s 20^th anniversary of its founding. In the past two decades the international nonprofit has rescued more than 600 bears from the cruel bear bile farming industry, and secured an MOU with the Vietnamese government to bring an end to the practice in that country. The organization also has programs focusing on Cat and Dog Welfare and Captive Animal Welfare that are shifting the paradigm of animal protection in Asia.
