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!
How else can we educate others about living a kinder life?
