What can teens do to stop animal cruelty?

Teens can do a lot to help stop cruelty to animals. More and more teens are becoming morally conscious at such a young age that they are already making a difference in our society. According to Gandhi, “the greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.” If a moral teenager sincerely wants to help make this globe a better place, then a good place to start is to help the animals of this planet.

The Humane Society of the United States is an organization that can advise teens on how to help stop cruelty to animals. Here they can learn how to properly care for dogs and cats if they have them, how to get involved in the community to promote the prevention of cruelty to animals, and they can learn how to stop animal abuse if they witness it first hand. Teens really want to do the right thing and usually just need the guidance of caring adults to steer them in the right direction.

Another great thing teens can do to help prevent cruelty to animals is to start a club at their school to help combat animal abuse. Just by approaching the school administration to form this type of club, you could start a very positive trend in your district.

By working together in a club for such a worthy cause, these young group members would help not only the animals but also increase community awareness of the problem. By organizing and running fundraisers, teens could give the money raised to local animal shelters, which generally rely on meager donations.

With people like Hayden Panettiere and Britney Spears doing their part to stop animal cruelty, many more teens may be more motivated to help in the fight against animal abuse. There is a lot of information available for teens, regarding learning how to stop animal abuse and helping your community become more involved in the effort. All one has to do is let their fingers click when it comes to learning how one can get involved in this great moral endeavor.
