The HUMANE FOUNDATION is a nonprofit - nonpartisan - non denominational organization seeking the 501(c)(3) status, committed to world changing through Humane Education.

We don’t only care for the environment but for Global Issues in general. We raise awareness about Social Justice; Cultural Influences and Pressures; Environmental Responsibility and Sustainability; and the Ethical Treatment of Animals. We then explore solutions and alternatives that help minimize our negative planetary footprint, towards people, animals, and the environment.

We work from the bottom up, determining how the Global Issues are manifested in our local communities so that we can find solutions on a local level. The Humane Foundation is one of the organizations that together with millions more all over the world, constitute what author and scientist Paul Hawken describes “the biggest movement the Earth has ever seen”.

We welcome students, teachers, housewives, professionals of diverse backgrounds, people from various religious denominations, and anyone who likes to participate in our umbrella organization to grow together and transform our communities and our world.

We are about personal growth, education, community service, activism, and volunteerism. We meet at schools, community centers, local parks, churches, hotels, restaurants, homes. We invite guest speakers, we plan events, we do arts and sciences contests, we organize book reading programs, movie debates, and much more.

The mission of The HUMANE Foundation is:

1- To Promote a healthy lifestyle that improves our physical, mental, and spiritual health.

2- To inform and educate people about the power of Humane Education for personal growth and world change.

2- To Raise awareness about the environmental impact, as well as the harm and suffering of people and animals behind the products and services we consume every day, so that people can make more compassionate and ethical consumer choices.

4- To Participate in community service and education projects that help turn the community into a safer, more just, greener, sustainable, compassionate, and humane place for its human and non human inhabitants.

We believe that informed individuals have better chances to choose living their lives in a way that is best for themselves, others, animals, and the environment. By doing this, those individuals will be better equipped to participate in the process of restoration, conservation, and preservation, of our fragile world.

Developed by Zoe Weil author and founder of the International Institute of Humane Education, MOGO, (short for “most good) is a principle to live by. By making MOGO choices every day, we can lead a compassionate life on a personal level that can make a difference to the world at large.

The MOGO principle is based on a simple premise: when we do the most good and the least harm in our daily choices, acts of citizenship, community work, and volunteerism, we create a life of inner peace while contributing to the building of a peaceful, sustainable world for all.

The 2009 National Award Winner as Best Practice in Character Education "The Humane School Initiative" together with the Humane Alternative Club, now The "Humane Youth Honor Society", are our ways to bring Humane Education to the school in a dynamic and practical way. Students identify school issues related to social injustice, the negative ways in which our culture influence youth, acts of animal cruelty, and environmental degradation, then they find available solutions to implement in the schools so that they can help create a Just; Safe; Green; Sustainable, and Humane School Environment.

The Humane Foundation Chapters are community groups seeking to implement the Humane Foundation Programs in their local communities.

While We Are Here is a faith base initiative to invite the communities of faith to participate actively in the transformation of the communities through acts of social justice, environmental responsibility, animal compassion, and ethical consumerism.
