Humane Investing: Stocks
Animal advocates go to great lengths to ensure that they do
not contribute to animal suffering. From a vegan diet to not
wearing leather to not buying products tested on animals. But
do you know what your investment money is funding? If not, you
should. |

Humane Stocks
Below is a list of stocks that have beneficial aspects to either the
environment or to animal issues. This list will grow, so be sure to
check back.
Before making any investment, be sure to contact the company to ask
questions that may concern you. It is also a good idea to ask to see
a prospectus and other written materials with stock performance. No
one at Animal Awareness is a qualified financial advisor. As with
all stocks, bonds, and mutual funds... there are no guarantees. This
list is intended to be a helpful tool only.
For additional companies to look into, take a look at PETA's extensive
list of companies
that do not test on animals. Many are publically traded and could
be good investment opportunities.

"Thank you for your interest in The Body Shop International PLC.

Humane Cosmetic Standard.
