Ace Names DVA as a 2021 Standout Charity:
Dharma Voices for Animals is honored to have been named a "2021 Standout Charity" from Animal Charity Evaluators. ACE, a well-respected evaluator of animal charities, has considered over 350 animal charities for evaluation, reached over 1.5 million people with their research through their website, awarded 46 grants from our Animal Advocacy Research Fund, and influenced over $26 million in donations to their recommended charities and Movement Grants recipients.
Here is what ACE said about DVA after an extensive investigation over several months:
"DVA's programs primarily focus on reducing the suffering of farmed animals, which we think is a high-priority cause area due to the large number of animals involved. Their work has potential to affect large numbers of animals given its global breadth."
"Dharma Voices for Animals works with Buddhist communities in countries with relatively young and small animal advocacy movements, which we think is a promising avenue for pursuing large-scale change for farmed animals. We think DVA is well-positioned to contribute to the growth of the animal advocacy movement in these communities and countries."
"We find DVA to be an excellent giving opportunity because of their strong programs aimed at increasing the availability of animal-free products and strengthening the animal advocacy movement in relatively neglected regions."
Every year, Animal Charity Evaluators (ACE) invests months evaluating animal advocacy organizations in order to find those that are working effectively and are able to do the most good with additional donations. Their goal is to help people help animals by providing impactful giving opportunities that reduce suffering to the greatest extent possible.
