Rodents
Rodent poison, used in homes, farms, and cities everywhere, kills by internal bleeding over several days causing distress, disability, and pain. Most people never think about it. The animals can’t escape it.
Who’s shown up for them: Movement Grants has supported RodentPlus, pioneering the use of fertility control for the humane management of the multimammate mouse in Nigeria, replacing painful lethal methods with a sustainable alternative.

Shrimp

Who’s shown up for them: Movement Grants has supported Asia Farming Solutions to transition backyard and mid-sized pig farms in the Philippines from gestation crates to group housing.

Movement Grants Matching Challenge
For a limited time, all donations to ACE’s Movement Grants will be DOUBLED.
The suffering of billions of farmed and wild animals remains largely unseen. Hidden by distance and by design. But around the world, advocates are working to change that, often with limited funding and support.
ACE’s Movement Grants funds organizations and projects that prioritize novel interventions, help large numbers of animals, and work in regions underrepresented in animal advocacy.
Make your move for animals. Help fund advocates creating change around the world, with every donation doubled for a limited time.
