Lucy is a survivor of a terrible attack in Pacifica, which claimed the lives of some of her friends and flockmates. Please read more about her story here and donate if you are able, or share widely. And let’s all keep pushing for a culture change that will make the world a kinder place for all species. Thank you for your compassion!

Palomacy — It’s Pigeon & Dove Diplomacy
Palomacy is a volunteer-powered, donation-funded, foster-based nonprofit rescue located in the San Francisco Bay Area of California saving the lives of domestic (unreleasable) pigeons and doves. (Our EID is 87-2836252.) We provide vet care, foster homes and adoptions. Since 2007, Palomacy has placed more than 2,000 birds and helped countless others through coaching, education and referral.
While our organization hatched as a local effort to help pigeons and doves in the San Francisco Bay Area, the need for what we do is unlimited. We are one of the only organizations in the world (and possibly the first) completely dedicated to rescuing, rehabbing and rehoming the lost, injured, or displaced pigeon and dove survivors of exploitative businesses, hobbies and sports. With your support, we rescue in Northern California and help birds from all over the world through our Palomacy Help Group.
