Welcome! You are invited to join a webinar: Celebrating Impact: ACE’s 2025 Recommended Charities. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar.
Join Animal Charity Evaluators (ACE), the 2025 Recommended Charities, and the people who make their work possible for a special, first of it's kind, virtual event celebrating helping animals this year.
Celebrating Impact: ACE’s 2025 Recommended Charities is a lively, community gathering that brings animal advocates together to reflect on shared progress, look toward the future, and enjoy some time together.
Though held on Giving Tuesday, this is not a fundraiser. We want to recognize the remarkable achievements of ACE’s Recommended Charities and the supporters who make their work possible.
If you're reading this, you're probably someone who's done something remarkable; you use your time, energy, or money to help the most neglected animals. We'd love for you to spend a little time with a few of the many others like you.
The first hour we'll spend getting to know and celebrate the charities a bit, following that there will be time to get to know each other and ask questions.
Hope to see you there!

This Vox article highlights growing evidence that fish may experience pain. Fishes and shrimp are too often left out of the animal welfare conversation. The article shows why their wellbeing matters and why supporting aquatic animal advocacy is so impactful. https://bit.ly/fish-pain-debate
The surprisingly profound debate over whether fish feel pain
We can never prove that other animals are conscious. What do we do with that?
