Every day, millions of animals are caged, beaten, electrocuted, transported thousands of miles without water, force-fed, mutilated without pain killers, slaughtered, skinned, trapped, and scalded. The horrors are endless and humanity seems to be infinitely imaginative in devising new methods of exploitation. Our goal is to end the suffering of animals, to be a voice speaking up for them when there are so many speaking out against them.

Make your voice count by joining one of Vancouver's most active animal rights organizations.

Community dialogue: 
A local animal rights information hub: Who, what, why, & how?

Sunday, September 19
1-4:30pm

Radha Yoga & Eatery, 728 Main Street, Vancouver

Are you interested in building community through the sharing of information? 

An online shared information hub is an idea that comes up over and over again. Many forums and calendars exist, but most hardly ever get used. 

Do you have ideas for making a site that works and that people would use? 

Come join other local area activists in discussing how a site like this could work, who might use it, and how it would be developed. The more perspectives represented, the better.

Walk for Farm Animals

Saturday, September 25th
check-in at 12:30pm, walk begins at 1pm
Walk starts and ends at Vancouver Art Gallery, Georgia St. side (map).

It's time to register and start raising money for the animals. Registration costs $15, and if you register by Wednesday, August 25th, you'll be guaranteed to get a t-shirt from Farm Sanctuary.  (Later registrants may also receive a t-shirt, but due to shipping issues between the U.S. and Canada, we can't guarantee anything.)  You can also register on the day of the Walk for $20.
