Shrimp Welfare Project
We guide the shrimp farming industry towards higher welfare practices for a more sustainable and ethical future.
Shrimp Welfare Project is the first organization to focus exclusively on improving farmed shrimp welfare. Their efforts include corporate and producer outreach and raising awareness about the welfare of farmed shrimps. The organization collaborates with stakeholders across the supply chain, including retailers and medium-to-large shrimp producers, to improve welfare standards.
Shrimp Welfare Project also runs the Sustainable Shrimp Farmers of India, which takes a farmer-centric approach to improving welfare standards on farms in the country.
Shrimp Welfare Project conducts and disseminates relevant research and participates in effective altruism, animal welfare, and shrimp farming industry conferences to increase the visibility of shrimp welfare as a neglected and tractable issue.

Stop Shrimp Suffering!
There are shrimp dying painful deaths as this very moment, and you can save thousands of them at a trivial cost. A single dollar can help as many as 1,500 shrimp avoid a painful death per year (for up to 10 years). Beyond a painless death, the Shrimp Welfare Projects works to end inhumane practices on living shrimp, such as eyestalk ablation, wherein female shrimps have their eyes torn out to artifically increase fertility.
If you feel at all convinced by the arguments tonight, please donate to show EAs can make a difference!

Die Welt retten mit Patrick J.: one shrimp at a time!
Liebe Kollegen, unser geschätzter Teamcoach Patrick Jopen verlässt die REWE. Da er sich für seinen Abschied keine Blumen, Schnappsflaschen oder Ukulelen sondern eine Spende an eine an eine wohltätige Organisation gewünscht hat, wollen wir mit dieser Spendenaktion versuchen, sein Schaffen bei uns angemessen zu würdigen! Gemeinsam können wir es für Patrick schaffen, mindestens 80.000 Shrimps zu retten und die Welt ein ganzes Stück besser zu machen. Wer sich mit der Thematik noch weitergehender beschäftigen will findet hinter diesem Link einen gut geschriebenen Artikel (english): The Best Charity Isn't What You Think Gemeinsam für das Wahre, Schöne, Gute und dem größten Glück der größten Anzahl!
