We are an animal welfare and advocacy organization started in honor of our sister Stephanie who dedicated herself to animals like they were family. We seek to honor her by working for animals in the greater Phoenix area and advocating for animals everywhere. We want to contribute to the reduction in animal violence, from neglect and homelessness to the practices of the food industry, and to encourage people to reject speciesism, the poisonous belief that humans are superior to animals in a way that justifies this mistreatment.
Steph S.A.V.E.S. coordinates fundraisers, facilitates adoptions, runs food drives, and rounds up volunteer teams to assist local animal shelters in their operations. We also advocate for animal rights’ causes, particularly in relation to the zoo and food industries. In short, we seek a better world for animals, like Stephanie did, and we believe such a world would be better for humans as well.
We accept donations, 100% of which go toward animal welfare. See the Donate page for details.
