A more compassionate world begins with how
we care for animals.
Animal Compassion Foundation helps animals in need today while building a more compassionate future through veterinary care, sanctuary and service.
Together, we can do more for animals in need.
Animal Compassion Foundation was created from a simple belief: when people who care come together, we can make a greater difference.
By bringing together veterinary expertise, funding and community partnerships, ACF is creating new ways to care for animals—and new opportunities for people to help.
Three areas of focus.
One shared purpose.
VETERINARY CARE
Helping animals get the care they deserve.
For many rescue animals, veterinary care is an important step on the journey to a forever home. ACF helps make that care more accessible while helping the rescue organizations that care for them stretch their limited resources further.
Today, that starts with our Rescue Relief Veterinary Care Program. ACF works with participating veterinary partners to make veterinary care more affordable for rescue organizations—helping more animals get the care they need and move closer to finding a family of their own.
Over time, ACF hopes to expand access to significantly subsidized or no-cost veterinary care for rescue organizations, while creating new opportunities for veterinary education and mentorship.
SANCTUARY
A loving home for life.
Some animals need more than temporary care—they need a safe, loving place to call home for the rest of their lives.
​
ACF's vision for Sanctuary is to give farm animals and other animals in need compassionate, lifelong care on thoughtfully preserved land.
​
Sanctuary can also create something special for people: a place to connect with animals and nature, volunteer, learn and spend time together. By caring for animals and thoughtfully preserving the land, ACF can create a space the community can enjoy for generations.
ONE HEALTH
Caring for animals, people and the world we share.
One Health starts with a simple idea: the well-being of animals, people and the environment is connected.
​
For ACF, it's both a guiding principle and a way to make a difference beyond direct animal care. Through education, mentorship, community partnerships and hands-on service, ACF can put veterinary knowledge and resources to work helping animals and the communities around them.
​
As ACF grows, that can include educational programs, community outreach and service projects—giving people of all ages opportunities to learn, serve and get involved.
Starting in Bucks County.
Built to make a difference far beyond it.
ACF has a bigger vision for what's possible: creating places where veterinary care, sanctuary, education and service come together to improve the lives of animals and strengthen the communities around them.
That vision begins in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, where ACF hopes to establish its first campus. With the community's help, it can become a place that changes lives, brings people together and creates a lasting model of compassion—with the potential for future ACF campuses to bring that model to other communities across the country.
Help animals today. Build for tomorrow.
Your support can help rescue animals get the care they need today while helping bring ACF's bigger vision to life.

Rooted in experience. Inspired by what's possible.
For ACF founder Chris Feaster, VMD, caring for animals in need has been part of his work for years.
​
As a veterinarian and practice owner, Dr. Feaster has seen firsthand how the right veterinary care can change an animal's future—and how difficult it can be for rescues with limited resources to afford it. Through his practice, he has worked with local rescues to help make that care possible.
​
His experiences caring for animals, together with his roots in Bucks County, inspired ACF: a vision to bring people, expertise and resources together to do even more for animals—starting close to home, with the potential to make a difference much farther beyond it.
