A bunch of us have just returned from the Animal Rights National Conference, and wow, it’s always such an inspiring experience. More to come on that, so stay tuned!
Now we’ve got a few local opportunities to get out there and take action for animals. One of the biggest is the upcoming leafleting and pay-per-view outreach at the Warped Tour on July 24. Not only will you get to work alongside visiting folks from Vegan Outreach, The Humane League, and FARM, but you also get to advocate for animals in a very effective way. Especially at the Warped Tour, we can reach lots of people in a short time and have a very receptive audience for our message.
So what are we waiting for? Let’s take action for animals today and make this a kinder world for all beings.
Best wishes,
Justin Leaf, Communications & Events Coordinator
