World Animal Protection, formerly WSPA (World Society for the Protection of Animals), has moved the world to protect our animal buddies for the last three decades.
Though their name may have changed, their work remains the same – and their determination to preserve the animals of our planet remains the same.
Animals are essential to life on Earth but are exposed to many risks. Protecting them is our responsibility.
That is exactly what the World Animal Protection is about.
Who or what is world animal protection?
WAP protects animals all over the world. They have always done it before the name change, and they always will.
Every day, in all countries of the world, millions of animals go through so much suffering. And the World Animal Protection seeks to be known by more people so they can protect more suffering animals around the world. This goal is why they had a change of name.
That is why they chose a clearer name that conveys the message of their ultimate goal. That is why they are now known as World Animal Protection.
The benefits of changing their name to World Animal Protection
Their new name demonstrates who they are and what they do. The name World Animal Protection will help more people know what they do and what they seek to achieve. And knowing what this organization does will encourage more people to support them in protecting animals.
Why the new name won’t change what they do
Though there has been a change of name, the organization’s core purpose stays the same. The WAP strongly believes that the name change has strengthened its purpose.
And the new amendment does not mean they will forget their past, either. The new name will help them protect their heritage by ensuring they keep protecting animals as they have done for the past 50 years.
World Animal Protection works with external organizations
World Animal Protection has been working and will continue to work closely with the UN, governments, businesses, communities, and other animal welfare organizations. And they are always searching for new partners to assist them in moving the world to protect animals.
The World Animal Protection work around the globe
World Animal Protection has been working from its 14 country offices in North and Latin America, Africa, Asia Pacific, and Europe.
Why supporters of World Animal Protection don’t need to change a thing
If you have supported the work the World Animal Protection did before they had a name change, there is no need to change any commitment to them in your Will or your CAF vouchers.
They remain the same organization, which means payment will still get to them.
