You've known us as The Humane Society of the United States and Humane Society International. Now, as we look to the future, we're uniting under a new name—Humane World for Animals—to better reflect who we are, the bold work we do and the global mission we share.

Since 1954, we have worked to create a more humane society for animals. Working side by side as the Humane Society of the United States and Humane Society International, we’ve helped to pass thousands of landmark laws, rescued hundreds of thousands of animals, and cared for and protected millions more.

As of 2025, to convey our mission and make sure that everyone understands who we are and the bold work that we do, our organizations are standing together under a new shared name: Humane World for Animals.
