HeARTs Speak is a nationally recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in Poughkeepsie, New York, that combines art and advocacy to raise the visibility of shelter animals. The organization aims to improve imagery and marketing for animal welfare groups to increase adoptions and reshape public perceptions of pet adoption. It runs several programs that connect professional artists with shelters on a pro bono basis, provide education on photography and marketing to shelter staff and volunteers, and operate a stock imagery project that licenses artwork to support adoption. Among these, Artists Helping Animals mobilizes professional photographers and artists to work with shelters worldwide.
