Bailing Out Benji, which was founded in 2011, is known for being a small nonprofit organization that makes huge waves with limited resources. While we are an Iowa based nonprofit, the ripple effects of our mission have been felt across the country which has resulted in having more than 200 volunteers in 27 states!
Whether we are peacefully protesting, educating at events, or hosting presentations, our volunteers are making an impression wherever they go. We are most well-known for our hands-on research that connects pet stores with the actual puppy mills they source from, which helps so much when it comes to talking with the public and policy makers.

It is our belief that a grassroots approach by concerned citizens is the most effective way to bring about change for animals and humans alike. Our focus is to encourage advocacy by providing the tools necessary to educate children and adults alike, while presenting the information in a non-graphic way.
