May is already off to a booming start for our compassionate community. On Sunday, we were at the MayDay Festival in Powderhorn Park where we gave people a dollar to watch an eye-opening video about factory farming.
Pay-per-view outreach is a powerful experience for both volunteers and participants alike. People who watch the video are often visibly moved by what they see, and then we have the opportunity to talk with them about how they can change their diet to make a difference for the animals.
Outreach such as that is just one aspect of what we do at CAA. Here’s the spectrum of what we’ve got coming up this month:
- Leaflet at the Paul McCartney Concert
- TONIGHT and TOMORROW! Wednesday, May 4 and Thursday, May 5, 10:00 – 11:0opm at the Target Center in Minneapolis
