Everglades Animal Coalition
The Pegasus Foundation
Mission Statement
The Pegasus Foundation aids in rescuing and rehabilitating domestic and wild animals, awards grants to animal welfare initiatives, and supports vibrant and healthy ecosystems through strategic partnerships and sound environmental policies.
“Our work is to continually develop a vision for entire ecosystems. The connections between wilderness and human-centered landscapes are as real as the air, water, soil and climate we all share. The next ten years are critical for many species and the quality of life we will pass onto future generations.” -- Barbara Birdsey, Founder and President
Our Mission Areas
Marine Animal Rescue
and Protection
Pegasus Foundation has partnered with established and trusted partners such as IFAW, The Center for Coastal Studies, and others to protect and rehabilitate whales, dolphins and other marine mammals that are threatened.
Wildlife and Habitat
Protection
We are finding solutions to end the horrific slaughter of elephants, rhinos and other wildlife in Africa and Asia. We also are working with partners in North America to protect animal habitat and range.
Animal
Welfare
Our animal companions need help, protection, and loving care. Pegasus Foundation supports a number of organizations which give a multitude of dogs, cats, horses and other animals a second chance.
Smokey's Campaign
Cats Abandoned in the Everglades need help!
Thousands of cats are dumped in the dangerous Everglades region, and suffer disease, starvation, and deadly predators. Instead of finding humane solutions, authorities capture and euthanize these poor animals.
Pegasus Spay/Neuter Initiative for Everglades Region
The Pegasus Foundation is dedicated to finding solutions to the severe animal welfare crisis in the Everglades region of south Florida where every year hundreds of dogs and cats are dumped.
Joint Animal
Transport-For-Adoption Project
The Pegasus Foundation has joined with Cold Noses Foundation and Pet’s Broward to form the Everglades Animals Coalition whose purpose is to rescue animals from the Everglades and Redlands area of Miami.
