Calling All Activists for Gentle Thanksgiving

[Guest guest]

We invite you to join the national Gentle Thanksgiving campaign.

 

Thanksgiving is a time to celebrate life, not take it. Please take a couple of

hours this month to share some veggie treats, distribute leaflets, or set up an

information table (more ideas below). We ask you to do something (anything) for

the 40-50 million turkeys slaughtered for this one day " celebration. "

 

Participating is easy. You can:

- Share veggie treats with your friends & family

- Set up an information table

- Distribute leaflets

- Hold a vigil or fast

- Visit a local TV or radio station

- Visit a shelter

- Distribute food samples, or

- Show a video (at church, at a club, or on the street)

 

Visit our web site at: http://www.farmusa.org/thanksgiving or call 888 FARM USA

to get advice, to obtain useful materials, and to register your event.

 

Registering your plans is important and enables you to:

1. Receive an Action Kit (inc. handout, petition & more)

2. Increase the national participation numbers and attract media attention

3. Inform activists in your community

 

FARM is working with United Poultry Concerns and Turtle Island (maker of the

fabulous Tofurky) to draw attention to the compassionate alternatives to the

cruel and unnecessary tradition of consuming innocent, feeling turkeys.

 

Turtle Island will donate free Tofurky for select events so please contact us

today.

 

Thank you for your active compassion. I look forward to hearing from you.

 

Sincerely,

Dawn Moncrief, Gentle Thanksgiving 2002
