Farm Sanctuary Wants to Help You Save Animals!
One of my favorite organizations is Farm Sanctuary. They run two sanctuaries in California and one in New York and they actively campaign for animal-friendly legislation. They also educate the public about animal rights by giving tours of their sanctuaries and conducting outreach efforts online and at events around the country. Two years ago, I had my birthday at one of the California sanctuaries they now run (then, it was known as Animal Acres). It was such great day!
Anywho, I recently became a spokesperson for Farm Sanctuary’s Compassionate Communities Campaign, an outreach effort aimed at helping animal advocates share their kind lifestyle by learning how to compassionately promote healthy eating, build a community, and advocate for animals. Here’s a video I made about Compassionate Communities:
Please join me!! Here are some ways you can get involved:
Help Farm Animals By Leafleting
Start a Social Group
Educate Yourself
The more information you have, the better advocate you can be. Farm Sanctuary lists a ton of great essays and books here that will help you answer questions from skeptics or veg-curious people you talk to everyday. I also cover all of this and more in The Kind Diet, so if you haven’t yet, grab a copy here!
Here's how you can protect animals on the road!
How else can we educate others about living a kinder life?

Great vid! Farm Sanctuary is a wonderful organization and I'm so glad there are resources available to help us all become advocates for animals. Thanks! -
The Kind Diet was one of my first educational sources about living a Kind Life. Alicia, nothing has probably contributed more to the health of our planet than The Kind Life since penicillin was invented! The Farm Sanctuary is a wonderful organization. Good luck with your new endeavor! -
We all know education is key to change. It's nice to have the extra resources to help explain to my family that isn't vegan why my lifestyle is so important. Beyond health, it's about protecting animals and our enviornment. Thanks! -
My girlfriend and I live in upstate NY and just visited the Farm Sanctuary for the very first time a few weekends ago. What a life-changing experience!! Thanks for your advocacy and for your fantastic book, Alicia! -

I love the idea of a vegan social group or even a vegan night out. Invite your non vegan friends and maybe encourage them to give it a try!
