Welcome To Linda Blair WorldHeart Foundation!
The Linda Blair WorldHeart Foundation is devoted to the loving care and rescue of animals throughout Los Angeles. We are a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) charitable organization, which means we rely on generous tax deductible donations from animal lovers and benevolent souls, just like you.
With your help, we can work miracles to end the suffering of animals throughout Los Angeles. Our rescues deserve warm, happy and loving forever homes where they can live in safety.
How We Came To Be…
As a child, Linda was taught to respect all animal life and had aspirations of becoming a veterinarian. As an award-winning, Oscar-nominated actress and public figure, she has chosen to use her position to shed light on the crisis of animal cruelty in America.
As she began to realize the gravity of the problem, it became obvious that relieving the suffering of animals and having a widespread impact as an animal advocate would require more than her voice and efforts alone. Thus the Linda Blair WorldHeart Foundation, a 501(c)(3) California non-for profit organization, was born.
Linda has long been recognized as a talented actress, humanitarian and animal lover – having received a coveted City of Los Angeles Proclamation for her work to end animal cruelty and suffering. Joining with her in an effort to end animal cruelty at LBWHF are dedicated friends, supporters and many wonderful volunteers without whom the Linda Blair WorldHeart Foundation could not exist.
What We Do…
LBWHF is a unique safe haven for animals providing top-quality, lifelong care to the animals it rescues. We emphasize proper nutrition, provide first-class veterinary care, comfortable facilities, training, socializing, and of course, an abundance of love.
Using the media as an outlet for education, we hope to raise the level of awareness on important issues such as pet overpopulation and dog fighting, as well as debunking the unfounded, illogical and fear-based arguments that all too often lead to breed-specific bans and the heartbreaking extermination of beautiful animals whose only crime is having been born.
The recent economic recession and financial crisis have resulted in a record number of foreclosures and people aren’t the only ones to suffer in times like these. Homelessness is a harsh reality facing more and more animals, as people heartlessly abandon them or are reluctantly forced to leave them behind at already overcrowded shelters because they can no longer afford to care for them.
Please help us give these loving, loyal and wonderful animals a safe place to live a happy life. There are a variety of ways you can help, from making a tax-deductible cash donation, purchasing something from our CafePress store or bidding on one of Linda’s eBay auction items to volunteering at our facility or becoming a desperately needed foster family for our rescues.
