The Peregrine Fund's mission is to conserve birds of prey worldwide. The Peregrine Fund is responding to 21st century conservation challenges with a strategic plan based on the conviction of our founders—“we will succeed by using science to inform decisions and by not accepting failure as an option”—so that by the year 2050 we will have helped create a vision of success in which bird of prey populations and their ecosystems thrive; we have enriched the lives of local communities where we work and improved their future; we have earned the reputation and serve as global experts on birds of prey and their conservation; and raptors are valued by all humans. Our strategy stands upon three transformative outcomes: conservation, engagement, and capacity. Conservation will be achieved by preventing raptor extinctions, protecting areas of high raptor conservation value, and addressing landscape-level threats impacting multiple species. Engagement will be reached by inspiring people to value raptors and take action, serving as a catalyst for change, and investing in tomorrow’s conservation leaders. Capacity outcomes are centered on The Peregrine Fund’s capacity to apply our core values, promise, and guiding principles to complex conservation challenges. Capacity will be built by assembling the infrastructure, facilities and people, and raising sufficient funds to execute the actions needed to reach measurable, time-bound goals on an iterative five-year planning cycle.

Promoting Animal Welfare on Superior's Shores Helping PAWS Pet Rescue, Inc. was founded for the sole purpose of helping to stop the suffering of companion animals caused by homelessness, overpopulation, and mistreatment. Our goal is that no adoptable companion animal ever be euthanized for lack of medical care and a good home. This goal is not limited to dogs and cats, but extends equally to horses, rabbits, birds and other domestic species. Our mission is to proactively aid homeless and unwanted animals by offering, not just a "humane" alternative, but to provide in each case the best possible process that would result in each individual pet finding its forever-home. Our mission is unique in that we include not only young, healthy homeless pets, but also owner surrenders and individuals with medical needs that would cause them to be rejected by or euthanized by other organizations. Helping PAWS Pet Rescue, Inc. believes that the means to accomplishing our mission should be two-fold: Serving animals and educating people. Serving Animals: Spaying and neutering all homeless pets in our care prior to adoption as well as offering low-cost spays and neuters to low income families is primary. Veterinary care is available to homeless pets, with procedures, medications, and special diets provided as needed. We arrange foster homes for pets awaiting placement and adoption services by application. Educating People: Equally important is education of the public in every way possible to keep their chosen pet happy, well, and in their home. Our presence at Country Care Pet Hospital promotes daily our philosophy of preventive maintenance, optimal nutrition, medical care and the importance of the human-animal bond. Helping PAWS participates in a great variety of local pet-related events and presentation opportunities, including visits to local schools, retail outlets and community groups.
