This association promotes the defence and well-being of wild animals and companies without distinction. It undertakes both in a fight against animal testing and animal testing in general, as well as in promoting secured luggage racks for cats in the nantais city bicycles. One Voice does not want to "humanize" the conditions of captivity and treatment of animals in laboratories, farms or slaughterhouses, for recreation or the company of humans, or for their clothing. For One Voice the objective is the absolute right of animals to respect that must be recognized. To achieve this objective, the Association pursues missions in four fields of action: health without torture, food and clothing without barbarism, leisure and company without violence, ethics. One Voice is an independent 100% structure that works only thanks to the generosity of its donors. In order to preserve its freedom of speech and action, the association does not receive subsidies from the State or contributions from companies. An association to support absolutely!
