Clubs in Action

If you're like many teens, you're interested in helping animals or the environment.

Perhaps you want to do something to help abused or abandoned pets in your community. Maybe you'd like to start a recycling program at your school. Or you might be looking for ways you can raise people's awareness of issues like responsible pet care, animals in research, or Earth-friendly farming. Whatever your concern, you can make a real difference by forming or joining an animal protection club.

Click on the clubs on this page to read about teens working together to make things better for people, animals, and the environment. We hope their stories inspire you to start a club of your own—or join one!
