About This Cause
The BC SPCA is the only animal welfare organization in B.C. with the authority to enforce animal cruelty laws under the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act (PCA Act). We are the largest animal welfare organization of our kind in North America and the largest animal sheltering society in the world. We have 42 locations across B.C. including: • 36 branches which care for abused and homeless animals, until they are adopted into new homes (including two facilities with large animal barns) • Two animal hospitals (Vancouver and Penticton) • Two spay/neuter clinics (Kamloops and Prince George) • Wild ARC, our wildlife rehabilitation centre in Metchosin • A provincial Animal Helpline in Victoria • Our provincial office in Vancouver, which oversees animal cruelty investigations, advocacy and education for youth and adults and other key activities across B.C. We assist more than 118,917 animals in need every year and are funded by compassionate animal lovers who support our work and partner with us to protect and enhance the quality of life for domestic, farm and wild animals in B.C. We are committed to achieving the highest standards of transparency and accountability in all our activities. In order to maintain these high standards of accountability and to foster public confidence in the work of our organization, we undertake to provide the public with information on our governance, operations and financial position. Whereas, the world is inhabited by many species sharing a common ecosystem of air, earth and water. We recognize and value our interconnectedness with all animals. Therefore, the BC Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is dedicated to protecting and enhancing the quality of life for the animals of the world we share. We pledge our energies to inspire and mobilize society to create a world in which all animals, who depend on humans for their well-being, experience, as a minimum, five essential freedoms: 1. Freedom from hunger and thirst 2. Freedom from pain, injury and disease 3. Freedom from distress 4. Freedom from discomfort 5. Freedom to express behaviours that promote well-being.
