The Humane League (THL) is an international nonprofit organization that works to end the abuse of animals raised for food through corporate, media and community outreach. It operates in the United States, Mexico, the UK and Japan. THL promotes plant-based diets, conducts research on the effectiveness of different interventions, and works to obtain animal welfare commitments from companies.[1] It was founded in 2005 in Philadelphia by Nick Cooney.[2]
THL was awarded more than $20 million in grants from the Open Philanthropy Project,[3][4][5] and has been one of the top recommendations of Animal Charity Evaluators since 2012.[1]
