With the help of our generous supporters, the BC SPCA has seen a transformational change in the care and protection of B.C.’s most vulnerable animals. We now have an opportunity to influence even more change by empowering every British Columbian to make a difference in the lives of animals.
We are embarking on a five-year journey (2019-2023) to change the future of animal welfare. With your continued support, this four-pillar vision to protect, care, inspire and grow will have a huge impact on animals across BC.
Here are some stories that illustrate what these pillars mean when it comes to helping more animals in the coming years. We invite you to learn more about the state of animal welfare in B.C. (PDF) and our plans to help address urgent welfare concerns impacting animals in your community. Join us as we work to create a better future for domestic, farm, and wild animals in B.C.
