Welcome to Green Mountain Animal Defenders
Green Mountain Animal Defenders (GMAD) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, volunteer-run organization with members and supporters throughout Vermont.
Believing that all animals have intrinsic value and are worthy of protection, we use our statewide network to help animals of all species.
We encourage all people to increase their personal level of compassion by promoting humane choices and raising awareness of animal issues through education, advocacy, outreach, and collaboration.
GMAD also protects individual animals through direct services such as our foster care network, spay/neuter assistance program, and emergency transport team, as well as by providing expert advice and urging public policy reform on the local, state, and national levels. Since 1983, we have been accomplishing our mission by:
- Maintaining a statewide, volunteer-run organization which allows donated funds to directly benefit animals
- Educating the public through outreach efforts, media relations campaigns & other special events
- Incorporating a unique internship program which captures the energy and enthusiasm of students and trains them to become effective animal protection advocates
- Sponsoring spay/neuter programs
- Offering referrals for re-homing and adoptions
- Managing and activating a grass roots network of animal protection advocates throughout the state to support animal protection legislation
- Providing rescue and transportation services for animals, including wildlife
- Sponsoring the Vermont Animal Cruelty Response System’s toll-free telephone number: 1-877-9 HUMANE
