Empowering Animals & People: The ACF Social Impact Model
At ACF, our commitment to animal rescue goes beyond traditional methods. We believe in innovative solutions that not only support our cause but also uplift communities and protect the environment. That's why we've launched two impactful social enterprises: TRIO and ACF Shop.
TRIO is our social impact brand dedicated to tackling plastic pollution in our oceans and creating economic opportunities for those who need them most. We:
Clean the Oceans: We work with local communities to remove discarded fishing nets, preventing harm to marine life.
Empower Fishermen: We incentivize fishermen in underprivileged communities to participate in the cleaning process, providing them with additional income.
Support Women Artisans: We train and empower women, who are often the sole breadwinners in their families, in the art of weaving beautiful products from the collected nets.
Help Animals in Need: Profits from TRIO sales directly support animal rescue efforts at ACF Animal Rescue.
Our TRIO products, recognized for their eco-friendliness by the Pet Sustainability Coalition, are available in the United States and are expanding globally.
ACF Shop offers a curated selection of beautiful, handcrafted luxury goods made in Pakistan. By shopping at ACF Shop, you're not just getting a stunning piece you'll love – you're also supporting:
Local Artisans: We collaborate with skilled artisans in Pakistan, providing them with fair wages and promoting traditional crafts.
Animal Rescue: All proceeds from ACF Shop sales go directly towards caring for animals at ACF Animal Rescue.
More Than Just Giving:
We understand that donor fatigue is real. ACF Shop provides an alternative way to support our cause. With every purchase, you can feel good knowing you're getting a beautiful product and making a positive impact on the lives of animals, people, and the planet.
