The Humane League began as a tiny grassroots nonprofit in 2005—protesting foie gras on bitterly cold nights at local restaurants in Philadelphia. It has since grown into an effective and global nonprofit organization. Their research arm, The Humane League, conducts studies and makes practical recommendations to inform future strategies and tactics. Their outreach organization, The Humane League, is a global coalition of organizations united in a common goal: to end the abuse of chickens worldwide.
