Over the past few decades the need for a new industry category has arrived to include organizations focused on Animals and the Environment. Environmental organizations are dedicated to reclaiming and preserving natural resources and to beautifying the world around us. They range from recycling programs to wetlands management to garden clubs, and are supported by a growing and diverse constituency of donors that often spreads beyond traditional geographic limits. Animal nonprofits include humane societies and SPCAs, bird and wildlife sanctuaries, fisheries, veterinary organizations, zoos, and animal-training nonprofits.
