The new year has arrived, and with it we’ve got lots of ways for you to take action for animals. I hope you’re feeling inspired.
As our local community grows, the broader movement grows. And as the movement grows, we’ll see a collective shift away from the exploitation of animals. I hope you believe in the power that you have as an individual in that equation.
Here are some concrete ways to make a difference in the months ahead. Whether you’re helping out with setup for a potluck or taking on a leadership role by joining a planning committee, you can be a part of the CAA team in 2017. Let’s do this!
Best wishes,
Justin Leaf, Communications & Events Coordinator
P.S. Thanks for your help spreading the word about our year-end fundraising campaign! We reached then exceeded our goal. Your support was so vital in making that happen.
