The A.A.F. is a 501 C-3 not-for-profit corporation and one of America's first no-kill and cageless animal shelters.

The foundation is named after St. Francis of Assisi, the early champion of animals.

The AAF is the proud recipient of recognition and award from the Chicago Veterinary Medical Association. This organization presents only three awards annually for outstanding work by humane organizations. The AAF won this honor for the fourth time in 2003!

The A.A.F. is dedicated to providing shelter, care and, when appropriate, re-homing suitable animals to caring, permanent homes. We abide by a no-kill policy, which allows for euthanasia only under professional veterinary assessment, recommendation and administration in cases of terminal illness which cause suffering, in cases of injury too severe to repair, or in cases of such severe aggression that it is a threat to other shelter residents and caregivers is present. The A.A.F. is dedicated to educating the public on such issues that impact on animal welfare, preservation and protection, developing humane attitudes and compassion in your people, providing a pet therapy program to nursing centers and providing a continuing care program for dogs and cats. The A.A.F. is dedicated to improving and protecting sentient life.
