BERKELEY, CA – December 22, 2025 – Fieldwork, a renowned craft brewery committed to community engagement, today announced a $100,000 donation to the Berkeley-East Bay Humane Society (Berkeley Humane) in support of its capital campaign for the new Bay Area Animal Resource Center (BAARC).
This significant contribution will directly aid Berkeley Humane in constructing the state-of-the-art facility, which is designed to expand the organization's capacity to rescue, rehabilitate, and re-home companion animals throughout the Bay Area. The BAARC will allow Berkeley Humane to serve a greater number of animals with comprehensive medical and behavioral support.
"Fieldwork is proud to partner with an organization that demonstrates such deep commitment to animal welfare in our community," said Barry Braden, CEO of Fieldwork. "Berkeley Humane's vision for the Bay Area Animal Resource Center is vital for providing long-term, compassionate care. As a company rooted in Berkeley, supporting the BAARC is a natural extension of our commitment to making a positive local impact."
The capital campaign aims to build a modern, larger center to replace the organization's aging facilities, ensuring that Berkeley Humane can meet the increasing demand for its services. Fieldwork Brewing encourages other local businesses and community members to join in supporting the campaign.
