About Me


"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, concerned citizens can change the world.
Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."
- Margaret Mead

With a history spanning more than seven decades of campaigning on behalf of animals, SAFE (Save Animals From Exploitation) continues to be at the forefront of exposing animal abuse within New Zealand and around the globe.
WWW.SAFE.ORG.NZ
SAFE has consistently been outspoken in defence of animals in New Zealand since 1932.
SAFE undertakes high-profile, professional campaigns utilising its expertise, resources, members, volunteers and the media, in an effort to prevent animal abuse and improve the way society treats animals. SAFE promotes respect and compassion to all animals.
The scale of SAFE’s campaigns varies from single actions to long- term strategic campaigns that involve decades of lobbying, research, education and demonstrations. Public awareness is central to most campaigns as public support is critical to making significant strides forward to for the betterment of animals.
Act now. Support SAFE. Save lives.
